Gertrud MINI Jacket is a soft and cute teddy jacket for children with buttons in placket front. The jacket is made in a soft teddy fabric, and it is fully lined with block printed cotton lining. The jacket has pockets at front on both sides made in kantha blanket and a small ruffle details in block printed cotton along the top of the shoulders.This unique item has parts that are upcycled from a vintage Kantha blanket. A kantha blanket is made of old cotton fabrics such as saris that are placed on top of each other and stitched together by hand, using the traditional kantha embroidery technique. This technique is characterized by the many rows of short, continuous stitches – a method that has been used in India for hundreds of years and especially common among women in the countryside. The kantha embroidery technique creatively upcycles old cotton saris that previously have been worn by Indian women, giving them new life as upcycled clothing items, blankets, or bedspreads. Each Kantha item is one-of-a-kind in its print and color combination. Due to the nature of kantha, you may find different colors on the back of the garment, additional fabric patches, smaller imperfections such as small stains and spots or extra stitching that adds to its unique charm.---1 - 2 years: Full length: 40 cm Chest: 76 cm 3 - 4 years: Full length: 43 cm Chest: 80 cm 5 - 6 years: Full length: 46 cm Chest: 84 cm 5 - 6 years: Full length: 50 cm Chest: 88 cm
