This piece has found its home — but it can be made to order. Each DOT 'N' POT creation is one of a kind; natural dyes ensure no two pieces are ever truly alike. ♥ Commission a similar piece and make it uniquely yours.

Kids' hooded woolen vest - partly eco-printed and naturally dyed, partly upcycled.
The pink front and back parts are eco-printed with eucalyptus leaves and naturally dyed with cochineal ((Dactylopius coccus - insect dye). The rest and the lining is sewn from upcycled second-hand merino wool pullovers, that were unworn but still in excellent condition — giving beautiful materials a second life instead of letting them go to waste. They are not naturally dyed.
The vest has two pockets and is completely lined.

This garment is eco-friendly and sustainable – made from natural, biodegradable materials - right down to the care labels, which are gradually transitioning to cotton.
Care instructions:
Hand wash in lukewarm water, dry flat in shade, iron on wool setting. Wool naturally neutralises odour - air out between wears to wash less often. → Full care instructions in my care guide.
NOTE that different monitors may display colors differently.
