I love to knit. I love to knit little things… like hats, accessories and maybe a tiny jumper for a newborn but that is it… no patience but I love the look and feel of hand knitted pieces.

So today I am happy to introduce you to Miou Kids.

Miou was launched in August by Gibsons, BC, designer Christine Dubin, who is originally from France. Hand-knit from 100% baby alpaca wool, Miou’s sweaters, leggings, booties, hats and blankets are made by skilled workers in Peru. The workers, who are all mothers, receive a fair wage that enables them to clothe and feed their children. In addition, 5% of the profits from the brand are donated to their children’s education.

KleinL is wearing the Bateau Sweater {yes, from the boys section…} and it is cosy, super sweet and perfect for the chilly mornings and evening we already face at the moment.
