Happy hump day everyone,
With autumn fast approaching and the rainy days (including flash flooding) Perth experienced last week it got me thinking about warmer garments for Chet. Last year I bought a bunch of woolen knits and was a little annoyed at myself for buying so many when our winter here in Australia is not that cold. Unfortunately he outgrew them really quickly, so this year I am aiming at buying cotton knit garments instead. Cotton is lightweight, but still warm enough to keep our babes toasty throughout the cooler months.
I found a beautiful brand called Zulunar based in Sydney, who create gorgeous 100% cotton knitted garments for babies and toddlers. To be honest, I was initially looking for a new cuddle blanket but soon realised they also stock matching beanies and cardigans. Eeeek! Who doesn’t love a baby/ toddler in an adorable and coordinating outfit? I grabbed one of each (not making last years mistake) and we loooove them. I’m super happy and Chet seems really comfortable in his new cardi.
I have put together 2 of my favourite looks from the Zulunar website below. I would really recommend anyone who is wanting to invest in some quality knitted pieces for their little love, to have a squizz at these shopping links.

I have always found sweet boys clothing hard to find so I’m glad I came across this beautiful store before Chet grew out of size 2. He is 2 and a half years old and is in between a size 2 and 3 (wearing size 2 below) so the sizing for us is spot on at the moment. The bonus part is that cotton washes a tonne better than wool so these pieces will last the test of time.
It’s my birthday tomorrow so I’m off to bake cupcakes with Chet. Happy Shopping!
Much love,
T xx

Always a little confused in the beginning when reading your blogs about coming seasons _;). Here in the Netherlands we are waiting for spring come, so it’s a bit weird reading about coming autumn. But what a lovely knits. I will check the website anyway, here we can use cotton vests in spring and often in summer too. Maybe I can find some for my granddaughters and -son.
