YEAR – WOOL IS HOT

The most wonderful time of the year in my world is Autumn! It’s simply magical to me. More than any other season… The weather gets me and my family to go out and explore, but it’s also the time of the year when we really have to start thinking about keeping our little ones warm and dry. Especially young babies…

Whilst browsing through the list of exhibitors of Playtime Paris next edition (coming January!), I stumbled upon a new brand called YEAR.

The Dutch brand YEAR was founded in 2012 by Eline Teng. She and her sister design blankets, playmats, wrappers, plaids and pillows for children. Their products are quite unique if you ask me and you can even order custom made items.

All of YEAR’s designs are made of organic cotton combined with Texel wool (from Holland). This wool is wonderful for children because it is super soft and doesn’t  itch. They really know how to transform this natural product into stylish eye catching items!

And for all the Mummies (and daddies) who like to curl up under a blanket on the couch at night… Make sure you check out the lovely colourful plaids and pillows … There is literally something for every interior.
