An essential for your newborn, and a firm favourite fabrication at Nature Baby. We breakdown what it is that makes this material so special - and so ideal for little ones. 

Pointelle is one of our most loved fabrics, it's a nostalgic style traditionally used as a first layer due to its incredible temperature regulating quality. The tiny holes within the fabric create a unique quality that allows heat to draw away from the skin and be held within the layer of cotton, providing a breathable warmth rather than overheating. We have made our pointelle in a rib to accentuate these qualities as well as making it super soft and stretchy, allowing your baby to be both warm and comfortable.

This beautiful material features across a range of different styles in each of our stores, and online. One of these classic pieces, that new parents love, is our kimono bodysuit. Here is why we love this Nature Baby essential...
