She asked how other mothers get on if the baby seems to be allergic to wool and gets itchy and red where the wool touches the baby’s skin.

One response is from a mother who says she always put her babies into a cotton vest then put a woollen vest over that before putting on the outer clothes.  This kept the baby warm without too much bulk and no wool next to the skin.
