Details
The generous square size makes swaddling easier, whether you’re learning for the first time or already confident with your wrap. As your baby grows, this swaddle continues to be incredibly versatile. Use it as a light blanket in the bassinet or cot, a cosy layer in the pram, a soft surface for tummy time, or a comforting wrap when you’re out and about.
The Sleep Store Deluxe Merino range is designed to deliver superior warmth, comfort, and durability for growing babies, toddlers, and children. Made from luscious 220gsm, 100% merino rib fabric, this range is thicker, warmer, and more hard-wearing than many alternatives on the market. Naturally temperature regulating and breathable, Deluxe Merino helps keep little bodies cosy in winter without overheating as they move and play. Soft, stretchy, and made to last, it’s the perfect layering range for better sleep and everyday warmth.

As with many wool garments, you may experience a bit of pilling on this garment. Please note this is often due to a soft fibre such as merino rubbing against other fabrics, such as flannelette sheets. We consider pilling a normal part of wear and tear on a soft merino garment. We could have treated the fabric much more to reduce pilling but then it would lose its lovely, snuggly softness.
Please take care with moths
Protect
your Merino from small holes created by insects such as moths and
silverfish. Ensure your garments are clean before storing. Lavender and
Cedar wood are noxious to these pests so storing your garments with
these scents or a moth trap will help protect your knitwear further.
Love your Merino and it will love you back!
What are the major differences between The Sleep Store Merino garments?
This merino wool and tencel blend is silky smooth against the skin has a comfortable stretch and is super lightweight. The tencel component makes this garment quick drying. Perfect for all year round use, it is the lightest of our merino blend offering at 165gsm. Amazing weight for warmer weather.
Jersey Merino
The jersey merino wool is super smooth and soft, feels like high quality t-shirt fabric and has a comfortable stretch to it - not as much as the deluxe merino wool rib. Great for all year round at 200gsm. Good for summer babies.
Deluxe Merino Rib
This is a rib knit merino wool meaning it's structure is made up of rows of stitching. This gives this merino a really beautiful stretch with cross grain elasticity. It is so soft and great for all year round at 220gsm.
Merino Tencel Fleece
The most fluffy fleecy softness on the inside, with a smooth sweatshirt look on the outside, and most definitely the warmest of them all at 270gsm.
