Wool Baby Blankets

Ériu Wool Baby Blankets Collection

Inspired by our real Irish grandmothers who wouldn’t dream of wrapping precious cargo in anything other than the softest, warmest Irish wool, our handmade baby blankets are a gift to be cherished for years to come. Handcrafted from organic wool that was sustainably grown and harvested in Ireland, these baby blankets are sure to be a treasured heirloom for any little boy or girl. 

Improves Sleep Quality and Duration

Being counted isn’t the only way sheep can help with sleep. As any new parent can readily confirm, sleep is extremely important during the early days with a new baby, and remains important well into childhood. Recent sleep studies have shown that sleeping with wool pajamas or bedding can actually improve sleep quality and duration among infants, children, and adults. Give the gift of great naps with a handcrafted Irish wool baby blanket and see the difference that nature’s miracle fiber can make for a baby’s sleep.

All-Natural and Temperature Regulating

When it comes to comfort while sleeping, temperature matters! Unlike cotton or synthetic fibers, wool is naturally temperature-regulating, so the baby stays warm and cozy in cold weather as well as cool and comfortable in warm weather. Because babies are still developing the tissue that helps them regulate their own body temperature, high-quality materials in baby blankets are crucial for babies’ comfort. 

Hypoallergenic and Safe for the Most Delicate Skin

Skin allergies aren’t uncommon, especially in infants. Wool is naturally hypoallergenic and has been shown to help soothe eczema, a common skin condition among babies and children. We use only natural vegetable dyes and no harsh chemicals or ingredients to handcraft our wool baby blanket so that even babies with the most sensitive skin stay warm, cozy, and comfortable.

Handcrafted From High-Quality Textiles

At Ériu, we believe quality starts with selecting the very best materials. We are proud to source some of the highest quality wool from around Ireland to make up our proprietary blend. We use only sustainable, renewable, and biodegradable materials in both our products and in our packaging. All our wool baby blankets are handmade ethically in Ireland resulting in a long-lasting, heirloom-quality baby blanket that your family will cherish for years to come.

Incredibly Luxurious But Durable Enough for Everyday Use

Generations of mothers and grandmothers knew intuitively that wool was the best material for baby blankets. Wool is as durable and timeless as it is soft and beautiful. We use time-tested knitting techniques and stitch patterns designed to enhance the natural stretch and resilience of the sustainably harvested wool in all our blankets. The result is a baby blanket ideal for sleep, play, and everything in between.

The Perfect Level of Breathability

Wool is prized in blankets for its superior combination of warmth and breathability. Cozy but never stuffy, our wool baby blanket comprises our signature Honeycomb and Clover stitches meant to enhance the natural breathability of the organic wool yarn we use in all our products. 

An Ideal Baby Gift For All Occasions

Onesies can be outgrown, but a luxurious handcrafted wool baby blanket is forever. Our sustainably, ethically made wool baby blankets are hand-knit with love and made to last a lifetime. Gift them a true piece of the pastoral Irish countryside that they can cherish and make memories with for many years to come.
