Thank you Knit World

Special thanks to Knit World who choose to support The Little Miracles Trust and have been busy helping promote the use of wool for neonatal babies.

This wee pile of beautiful woollen cardigans was recently delivered to the Wellington Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and where they’ll be greatly appreciated and used by some of New Zealands tiniest of Kiwis!

Did you know?  Neonatal babies are unable to properly regulate their body temperature in the same way as healthy and full-term babies. Non-breathable yarns such as synthetics and acrylics can trap moisture and cause babies to cool down rather than stay warm and dry. The use of wool is key to ensuring their body can focus on growing and developing.

Further information in regards to their promotion can be found on their website:  https://www.knitworld.co.nz/neo-natal-trust/

Or if you have woollen items you’d like to donate then please drop to any Knit World Shop or send them to
Knit World, PO Box 30645, Lower Hutt, 5040
or Knit World 62 Queens Drive, Lower Hutt 5010

 

Thanks so much for sharing your personal story!

We get a lot of positive feedback from families in a neonatal unit who read these stories and feel strength, hope and positivity knowing that they are not alone going through these experiences and feeling certain emotions.

If you would like to discuss sharing the story of your neonatal journey, we’d love to hear from you.
