We are very proud of our GOTS labeled Hobbii Baby Cotton, which is a 100% clean, delightful cotton of outstanding quality. It is spun from the finest Egyptian cotton fibers, it is environmentally friendly produced just for Hobbii and it is vegan.
Of all the cotton types, Egyptian cotton is the most exclusive. It is famous for being extra strong, soft and incredibly durable. The long, exclusive cotton fibers are extra luxurious and are used for the finest cotton products around the world.
The ecological cotton in Hobbii Baby Cotton is handled with care and is exclusively handpicked during harvest. This means that one can harvest it at the exact right moment, when the plant is mature and has had time to develop optimally.
The careful plucking furthermore leads to the fibers keeping their volume, tautness and length. This results in one of the most delightful cotton yarns we have held in a long time.
P.S. Are you looking for a cotton yarn that isn’t dyed, you’ll find it in our Baby Cotton 15, which is completely untreated, natural and undyed. Please be aware that the nuances can vary more than usual from batch to batch.
Baby Cotton is GOTS certified (Nr. GO0361) which is your guarantee that the fibre has been manufactured with respect for the environment - completely without the use of chemical pesticides and artificial fertilisers etc.
About GOTS
The GOTS certification is an internationally recognized standard, which is used for the environmentally friendly and socially responsible production of ecological textiles. It stands for very high demands in all parts of the supply chain, from when the raw goods are harvested, to you having the finished product on your needles.

Love this cotton. I bought this yarn to make a baby sweater. As I was designing my own pattern I had to tear it apart frequently. This yarn held together well. I chose the baby pink which was very beautiful when made up. It also washes up well. I highly recommend this product for baby clothing.
Alyson
What a fantastic yarn for baby items. The colours are so beautiful and the yarn so smooth and soft. I have used the pink to make a girls new born cardigan and the blue to make a boys new born cardigan. I loved making them and I am so pleased with the finished articles.

Very soft cotton that washes well.
I love to use this to crochet reusable face wipes as the organic cotton has no nasties so it’s soft and kind for our skin too.
Lovely subtle colours.
Josie
Lovely quality and really soft, perfect for babies. Great range of colours and I’d definitely recommend for the price. Really happy with my purchase.
