We are very proud of our GOTS labeled 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 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. ICEA-TX-273) which is your guarantee that the fiber has been manufactured with respect for the environment - completely without the use of chemical pesticides and artificial fertilizers 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.

I bought this cotton to make renewable make-up removal pads, to sell at our summer fair, as an eco alternative to disposable cotton pads. The yarn is beautifully soft, and I love the fact that it is organic - which makes it double kind to the environment.
The range of colours is lovely too - I used several related shades of green/blue and pink/purple and the end product looked beautiful.

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.

This is my favourite cotton. The colours are simply beautiful. Im using it with a 3mm hook to make bunting and it working up a treat. It doesn't split at all and it has a lovely soft sheen to it. The stitches are really defined and i love the it looks. I would definitely but this yarn again.
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.

This yarn is so soft, the colours are beautiful. I'm making a baby cardigan and it is coming together beautifully, the stitches stand out really well and there is not 'fuzzing' when I had to frog. I won this playing bingo, but I will be buying more in the future!
