Woolies Kids

Handknitted woolen baby bootees

My husband and I raise Rambouillet sheep on our farm near Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. We deliver the wool to a processing plant to be died and worked to my specs after which I hand knit the bootees on to a sheepskin sole. The finished Woolies have the fleece side against the child’s foot and the suede side is to the outside/bottom. Woolies are available in three sizes from newborn to eighteen months of age and in a variety of colour combinations. They are available in several retail outlets across western Canada.
