FAQs
Is this cardigan suitable for both boys and girls?
Yes, the Little Ted Cardi features a neutral design and beige color, making it perfectly suitable for any baby.
What does GOTS-certified mean?
It means the cotton meets the Global Organic Textile Standard, ensuring it is grown without harmful chemicals and that the production chain follows strict environmental and social criteria.
Can I tumble dry this item?
No, it is recommended to dry the cardigan flat to avoid shrinkage and distortion of the knit structure.
Are the buttons made of plastic?
No, the cardigan features natural coconut buttons, which are a sustainable and stylish alternative to plastic.
How should I store the cardigan?
It is best to store the cardigan folded in a drawer rather than hanging it to prevent the shoulders from sagging.
Can I wash this with other clothes?
Yes, it can be machine washed, but ensure it is inside out and washed with similar colors to keep the beige tone looking fresh.
Troubleshooting
The cardi has lost its shape after washing.
Ensure you are drying the garment flat on a towel rather than hanging it while wet, as water weight can stretch the cotton fibers.
Buttons feel loose after repeated use.
Inspect the coconut buttons periodically and tighten the thread if necessary to ensure they remain secure.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Certified organic cotton is gentle on sensitive infant skin
- Timeless design makes it suitable for gifting or as a keepsake
- Ribbed trim helps maintain structural integrity after multiple wears

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Kite Little Ted Cardi remains in excellent condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a gentle 30 degrees Celsius. Always turn the garment inside out to protect the outer knit and the coconut buttons.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the cardigan flat on a clean surface to air dry, which prevents the heavy cotton knit from stretching or losing its shape.
- Storage: Fold the item rather than hanging it; hanging a chunky knit for long periods can cause the shoulders to stretch and the fabric to distort.
- Compatibility: The 12-18 month sizing is standard for this age group, but it pairs perfectly with other Kite organic cotton basics for a cohesive, skin-friendly outfit.
