Featuring:

Bottlebrush (Callistemon) flower – there are over 40 species of bottle brush, a native shrub whose flower has a sweet nectar. Did you know Indigenous people of Australia used the bottle brush flowers as a natural energy drink?

Flowering Eucalyptus or Gum (Corymbia ficifolia) – did you know gum blossoms don’t have petals like most flowers? Their colourful stamens are what attract insects and birds while the petals are actually fused into the cap, which becomes the gum nut.

Platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) – did you know that the primary function of a platypus’s tail is used to store up to nearly half of its body fat in case of a food shortage?

Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) – the much loved merry merry king of the bush is the laughing kookaburra, but did you know he sings his chorus to mark his territory?

Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) – koalas can sleep up to 20 hours a day, which is what you hope your newborn baby will do when wrapped in this blanket. Make sure not to say koala bear – he’s a marsupial, not a bear.

Kangaroo (Macropodidae) – our kangaroo has a baby joey in her pouch. Did you know the joey will stay in her pouch for between eight to eleven months and continue to suckle from mum until they are old as eighteen months?

The blanket colour ochre (pronounced OH-ker), has our mustard, rust, navy and white pure wool yarns knitted together. These earthy colours create a bright and Instagram worthy blanket suitable for both boys and girls and reminiscent of Australia’s long summer desert days.

Weighing approx. 430 grams, the Australian Animals blanket is a thoughtful gift to send overseas and is clearly marked as being Australian Made on the label.

Our ultra soft blankets are so incredibly fluffy and luscious you’ll definitely feel left out but don’t worry can get a pure merino throw for yourself too.

Bassinet – 80cm x 100cm
Extra Small lap blanket or baby receiving blanket.

All measurements have a tolerance of +/- 2 cm due to the nature of the wool’s natural elasticity.
