Soft, warm and roomy are the three words which better describe the qualities of this lovely organic HOGWARTS hooded cardigan/jacket. Ooops! Did I mention irresistibly cute? The patterned outer fabric is a real eye-catcher. The red jackets have a lovely patterned fabric instead. Let's start from its softness, though. What makes it so fluffy? A combination of two fabrics: a brown, brushed French Terry for the lining (warm sweater fabric) and a loopback cotton jersey for the outer fabric. What makes it so fluffy? The brushed lining works its magic. What makes it warm? The fact that the lining is made from an organic warm sweater material called French Terry, with a brushed yet not visible inside and the outside is a slightly thicker organic cotton jersey. What makes it roomy? Because it's designed to have a generous fit, it can be used either as a longer buttoned cardigan as well as a lighter jacket (not water proof, of course), depending on the outside temperature and on what your child is wearing underneath. 

As for the whole The Country Mouse and The City Mouse collection, the artwork featuring the mice was created by Anastasia Wessex, a very talented illustrator based in the U.K.,who collaborated with me on this lovely collection. For the Magical Tea Time  collection I have to thank the talented Rosalinde Bonnet, children's book author and illustrator based in France.

The lining of this garment is made from an even organic brown fabric which truly makes the patterned fabric pop up! Please note the brown shade of the lining may be slightly darker of lighter than in the photos, depending on fabric availability. The vest closes on the front with small, round, wooden coconut buttons.

The HOGWARTS hooded vest/jacket has all it takes to keep your little one warm during the cooler Fall or Spring days inside and warmer Fall and Spring days outside. It is roomy and comfortable and has a hood which makes it perfect to be worn upon regular clothing for  a stroll on the baby carrier when the weather allows it.Made of beautiful organic fabric, it's cute and stylish at the same time and will definitely be a very appreciated gift. All you need to do is pick one of the two patterns. Which one will it be?

Please note that that you will receive an item similar to the one portrayed in the photos, but that the actual pattern placement may vary. Each item is unique.

Please, read the FULL DESCRIPTION of each pattern below, to make sure you order the right garment.

MAGICAL TEA TIME COLLECTION:

(HOG1) UNISEX/ brown lining - dragon with boy elf"

Isn't that little elf adorable? And how about the reading dragon? You can't be scared of him, can you? Even mice and bunnies are in for a warm cup of tea. The lining is made from an even organic brown cotton jersey fabric (the brown can be slightly darker of lighter than in the photos, depending on fabric availability) which truly makes the patterned fabric pop up! If you are looking for a girlier jacket, then maybe you should consider the next jacket.

(HOG2) UNISEX/ "fairies tea party"

Cheerful. isn't it? Just take a look at all those adorable fairies reading books and their critter friends sipping tea, reading and providing for coziness and happiness. There is definitely a tea party going on. The background color is the same as for the jacket with the dragon, but this jacket features female characters only.

THE COUNTRY MOUSE & THE CITY MOUSE COLLECTION:

(HOG3) UNISEX/ brown lining - "City Mouse" pattern

This pattern features male characters only. We'll refer to it as "The City Mouse" pattern, because here you see the elegant city mouse making his appearance. Despite of his cilinder hat, a bow tie and a walking-cane he's definitely not stealing the show. How about all the other cute fellow country mice? There's even one wearing wooden clogs! Please note that jackets HOG3 and HOG4 may look the same as a first glance, but if you look closely you will notice how different they are. They do not feature the same mice characters AND, while HOG3 features male characters only, HOG4 features a combination of male and female characters.

(HOG4) UNISEX/ brown lining - "Strawberries Party"

This jacket is slightly girlier than HOG3 as it features male as well as female characters and is scattered with sweet and juicy strawberries. With their red color, the strawberries make the pattern stand out a bit more. A freshly baked strawberry cake is about to be served and the plants are being taken care of. All mice are working  very hard... Wait... Did I say all mice? How about that little guy taking a siesta under the strawberry plant?

(HOG5) BLUE/ blue lining - "Chores" - mice pattern

The "Chores"pattern It's time for chores in the countryside. All the mice are keeping themselves busy, but not without a smile on their tiny faces, because working together can be fun. One is sweeping the floor, others are hanging the laundry, delivering the mail, carrying freshly picked fruit and more. Have fun checking out all those little details. The outer fabric is a soft blue that nicely contrasts with the darker blue of the lining. Please note that the blue lining of this jacket is thinner (thus lighter/less warm) than the brown lining of the other jackets.

(HOG6) RED jacket/ "Strawberries party" lining 

The red jacket is the only one featuring an even colored outer fabric and a patterned lining. The "Strawberries Party" mice pattern on the lining features male characters as well as female characters and is scattered with sweet and juicy strawberries on a white or light cream background (depending on availability). Please get in touch with me first to enquire. The photos only show the mice on a white background. A freshly baked strawberry cake is about to be served and the plants are being taken care of. All mice are working  very hard... Wait... Did I say all mice? How about that little guy taking a siesta under the strawberry plant?
