The JuneBee Baby app brings everything you love about us directly to your iPhone.
• Fair Trade Handmade Baby Clothing:
JuneBee Baby garments are made by women artisans in the city of Istanbul, Turkey. They have various backgrounds from college students and stay-home moms to grandmothers.
As a work from home mom, I enjoy working with these gifted ladies and giving them the opportunity to work flexible schedules while earning proper incomes.
Each JuneBee Baby master has her individual technique such as “pivot knitting” which minimizes motion while increasing knitting speed, or “armpit form” – keeping one needle motionless under the arm to achieve neatness. Some prefer the ancient Turkish “around the neck” method to balance the rhythmic pressure on hands with the upper body and maintain a smooth stitching flow.
Our knitting masters are all skillful in their own way, creating a variety of patterns such as cabled feather knots, trinity stitches, mock honeycombs, twisted ribs, woven herringbones and lace crochets.
Our crafters have learned how to knit, crochet, sew and weave tapestry from their moms who in turn learned from their great ancestors. Their craftsmanship and devotion make JuneBee Baby garments so special.
• Cotton Bamboo Natural Fibers:
Turkish cotton comes from the West part of Turkey – the Aegean area where the sunny climate offers an ideal environment to grow quality cotton The characteristics of Turkish cotton include durability, softness, natural shine and extreme absorbency.
Bamboo is a renewable resource as it regenerates itself. It also requires less energy and water to grow than other similar trees and plants used for fiber production, making it an eco-friendly choice. As a natural resource, bamboo cleans the air. Because of its root structure and rapid growth, it also reclaims the land destroyed by overgrazing and quickly eliminates the soil of toxins.
All JuneBee Baby infant and toddler knitwear is 50% Cotton and 50% Bamboo. These biodegradable and breathable natural fibers regulate body temperature, absorb moisture, prevent skin irritations and can stretch generously, so little kids can play and nap in health and comfort for four seasons.
Cotton Bamboo infant and toddler clothing is machine washable, so it saves time, too.
• Heirloom Quality Baby Knits:
I value longevity.
So, I proudly support the “slow fashion” movement, choosing craftsmanship over fast production.
In today’s rush world, it’s a breath of fresh air to raise awareness on clothing with integrity. This evolution brings eco-consciousness and ethical labor to every step from planting, manufacturing, and shopping to recycling.
Our baby wear is knitted without any use of machines. Each knitwear from the collection is durable, cherishing babies within the family and even passing through generations. Touch these garments and feel a connection to the artisans who created them with patience and pleasure.
The timeless designs of JuneBee Baby stand out from fast fashion lines and treasure your baby like in the good old days.
