    Are you layering your child with clothes because you're worried they're not warm enough, but you see that they're restricted in their movements?

    Does your child sweat profusely at the overheated school, then catch a cold at recess because their back is damp?

    Do you want to reduce the frequency of washing thanks to a naturally breathable and odor-resistant fiber?

    Are you looking for clothing made from natural, healthy and comfortable materials for your child's sensitive skin?

    General description

    The Disana children's Aran sweater is inspired by the famous zigzag pattern originating from the Aran Islands in Ireland, traditionally knitted by fishermen's wives to protect against the cold.

    This sweater is knitted with a generous amount of fine merino wool in a voluminous knit that traps tiny air pockets. These air cushions act as extra thermal insulation, making this sweater a true all-season garment for cooler days.

    Design and functional details

    • Traditional Aran pattern with textured knit
    • Comfortable, slightly longer cut to accommodate growth
    • Ribbed cuffs and hem for a good fit
    • Classic crew neck, easy to slip on
    • Unisex model, suitable for girls and boys

    Material and thermal performance

    Made from pure merino wool, this sweater offers:

    • excellent thermoregulation (neither too hot nor too cold)
    • natural breathability that wicks away moisture
    • thermal insulation thanks to the air pockets in the bulky mesh
    • a natural resistance to odors, reducing the frequency of washing

    Merino knit is soft, supple and comfortable, suitable for wearing directly on the skin or over a wool/silk base layer.

    Versatility and use

    This sweater is ideal:

    • in winter as a mid-layer under a coat
    • in mid-season or cool weather as a main layer
    • at school, at home and outdoors

    It allows the child to stay dry and at a stable temperature despite variations between heated indoors and cold outdoors.

    Comfort and freedom of movement

    Thanks to its stretch knit and flexible cut, this sweater is not tight and follows the child's movements.
    It provides a natural alternative to synthetic sweaters that promote perspiration and moisture.

    Colors: Dove blue, Indigo, Rose, Blackcurrant, Caramel, Eucalyptus, Aubergine

    Sizes:

    86/92, 98/104, 110/116, 122/128, 134/140

    Sizing advice

    Note: Every baby and child grows at their own pace. Maison de MaMoulia recommends choosing the size based on height in centimeters rather than an approximate age.

    Understanding Disana Sizes

    At Disana, each size is designed to last until the next size. For example, a size 98/104 is designed to cover the entire growth period until the next size , approximately from 98 to 110 cm (and often beyond depending on the child's build).

    Therefore, this is not a garment strictly limited to 98-104 cm, but an evolving size designed to accompany growth over an extended period.

    Carefully compare the garment measurements with your own measurements.

    Living Wool™ - Living Wool is an internal expertise concept-label developed by Maison de MaMoulia to identify products whose wool fiber is preserved as close as possible to its natural state, in the absence of industrial anti-felting treatments.

    Untreated wool - an authentic and living fiber

    This garment is made from untreated merino wool , without any industrial anti-felting treatment (such as Superwash, enzymes, Naturetexx®, polymer coatings, silicones or other similar processes).

    The fiber thus retains its intact natural structure , responsible for its unique properties , as well as its natural lanolin.
    This is what we call authentic and living wool.

    Unlike wools treated to remove scales, artificially soften the fiber, and withstand machine washing, this wool naturally retains:

    • its thermoregulation (neither too hot nor too cold)
    • its ability to absorb moisture while remaining dry to the touch
    • its natural antibacterial properties
    • its resistance to odors and dirt
    • its natural elasticity (the garment returns to its shape when at rest)
    • its self-maintenance capacity through simple aeration

    It is this intact fiber that allows for reduced washing, lasting, healthy and ecological comfort, and the preservation of a garment designed to last over time.

    The natural benefits of merino wool

    • Naturally breathable, wool allows moisture to evaporate.
    • Warm but never stifling, suitable for all year round
    • Regulates temperature and creates a microclimate around the body
    • Resistant to odors and stains, therefore less frequent washing is required.
    • Antibacterial thanks to the pH of untreated wool
    • Elastic, returns to its shape after use (knees, buttocks, fabric stretching)
    • Soft and comfortable against the skin
    • Flame-retardant and UV-protective
    • Antistatic
    • 100% natural, recyclable and – truly – biodegradable
    Composition

    • Pure organic merino wool, sourced from a production guaranteed to be mulesing-free and respectful of animal welfare. The wool comes from Patagonia, where the climate makes this practice unnecessary.

    • The fibers are of very high quality, free of harmful substances at any stage of the manufacturing process, and free of microplastics. The dyes used are certified for natural fibers, and are kind to both skin and the environment.

    • Production is GOTS and IVN BEST certified by Ecocert Greenlife (license no. 151699), with short production circuits guaranteeing traceability, quality and environmental responsibility.

    Conseils d'entretien

    Natural wool does not need frequent washing. Regular airing is often sufficient.

    Local cleaning of stains under ambient water with Ulrich gall or genuine Marseille stain-removing soap.

    ○ Complete wash (rare, when really necessary):

    • Hand wash only. No machine washing, even on a "wool" or "delicate" program.
    • Cold or room temperature water
    • Essential rule: the same temperature for washing and rinsing
    • Eco-friendly liquid laundry detergent specially formulated for wool or enriched with lanolin

    ○ Drying
    • No tumble dryer
    • No radiators, electric heating, or direct sunlight
    • Drying flat
    • Reshape while drying - and return from time to time to reshape further while the garment is still wet

    ○ Lanolin Maintenance
    • For this wool, it is best to use Ulrich laundry detergent, which is already enriched with lanolin.
    • Do not take a Cure bath for more than 1 hour.

    Fabrication & Écologie

    ○ Disana – A story of wool, craftsmanship, and respect. A German family business founded in 1982, at a time when natural textiles were still a niche market. From the very beginning, the brand has been built on a simple yet radical conviction: natural fibers are the foundation of healthy, sustainable textiles that respect both people and nature.

    Rather than following global textile industrialization, Disana has chosen a different path: preserving traditional textile know-how, maintaining local production and creating clothes designed to last.

    ○ A rare, local and controlled textile manufacturing process.

    Disana is one of the few European brands to maintain a largely integrated production chain in Germany.
    Knitting, garment making and quality control are carried out in their own workshops, with short supply chains and complete traceability.

    This choice allows:
    • strict quality control of textiles,
    • a reduction in transport and environmental impact,
    • maintaining local jobs and traditional textile know-how.

    Each Disana piece is designed as a functional, durable and timeless textile, intended to accompany everyday life for many years.

    ○ Raw materials selected with exacting standards.

    The merino wool used by Disana comes from farms that respect animal welfare, with production guaranteed to be mulesing-free.
    The fibers are selected for their quality, softness and natural properties: thermoregulation, breathability and durability.

    Dyes and treatments are chosen for their compatibility with natural fibers and their low environmental impact, in order to preserve the health of the skin and the planet.

    ○ Some of the strictest certifications in the textile industry.

    Disana is among the pioneers of certified organic textiles.
    The brand is GOTS and IVN BEST certified, two of the world’s most demanding labels for natural textiles and social responsibility.

    These certifications guarantee:
    • the absence of toxic substances,
    • complete traceability of the production chain,
    • fair working conditions,
    • very strict environmental standards.

    ○ A comprehensive commitment: textiles, people and the environment

    At Disana, sustainability is not limited to the material.
    The brand is committed to:
    • respectful and humane working conditions,
    • responsible and transparent production,
    • waste reduction and the recycling of textile scraps,
    • the transmission of textile know-how and the training of apprentices.

    ○ Textiles designed to last and be passed down

    Disana designs timeless, repairable and durable clothing and textiles, designed to be worn for a long time, passed down between children, and used for years.

    Merino wool, a living and renewable material, is at the heart of their philosophy: a textile that regulates temperature, breathes, protects and accompanies the body naturally.

    Questions fréquentes

    • Can it be worn directly on the skin?
    Yes.
    The fine merino wool used by Disana is soft and comfortable.
    This sweater can be worn as a first layer directly on the skin, or over a wool/silk undergarment depending on the child's sensitivity.

    • Is this sweater warm enough for winter?
    Yes.
    The voluminous Aran knit traps air, creating natural thermal insulation. Knitted with a high proportion of fine merino wool, this sweater is very warm yet breathable. Add a wool-silk layer underneath in very cold weather.

    • Does this sweater itch?

    Fine merino wool is soft and supple. For very sensitive skin, it's possible to wear a thin wool/silk layer underneath, but many children wear it directly against their skin without any problems.

    Conseils de Yuliya

    • Layering system:

    Disana merino wool clothing is a logical continuation for parents who already dress their children in ManyMonths merino wool adjustable garments. But it's also suitable for any family looking for simple, effective, and natural thermal protection.

    ○ Outer layer - Disana boiled wool (jackets, jumpsuits, coats), boiled wool skirt or trousers, boiled wool or knitted wool hat and mittens (Disana, ManyMonths)

    ○ Mid-layer - ManyMonths or Disana merino wool knit: T-shirt, sweater or cardigan, leggings

    ○ Base layer - Cosilana natural "second skin" underwear: Wool/silk or wool/silk/cotton T-shirts and leggings

    ○ Accessories - Hirsch Natur wool socks to complete the thermal insulation of the extremities

    • I discovered this brand in 2012, when I bought a small blanket (Original model in ecru, the brand's first product) for my baby, then a boiled wool jumpsuit.
    Discoveries of this quality and perfect thermoregulation were a real game-changer: faced with the lack of these products in France, I started offering them in stores in 2013, actively contributing to the development and visibility of Disana on the French market ever since.

    I also had the pleasure of visiting the brand's factory in Germany and meeting their teams on several occasions. Disana now holds no secrets for me, and I wholeheartedly recommend it for both children and adults.

    • I insist that these beauties should only be washed by hand (if necessary!) if you want them to last for many years while taking care of you.

    Disana

    Disana naît en 1982 en Allemagne, à une époque où les textiles naturels restent encore marginaux. Dès le départ, l’entreprise familiale suit une conviction simple : un vêtement sain commence par une fibre intacte. Plutôt que de suivre l’industrialisation textile, la marque choisit de préserver un savoir-faire local et de produire des vêtements conçus pour durer.

    Au fil des années, Disana fait partie des rares fabricants européens à conserver une chaîne de production largement intégrée en Allemagne. Tricotage, confection et contrôle qualité restent réalisés dans leurs propres ateliers. Ce choix permet de maîtriser la qualité, de limiter les transports et de maintenir un véritable métier textile. Chaque pièce est pensée comme un textile fonctionnel et intemporel, destiné à accompagner le quotidien pendant longtemps.

    La laine mérinos provient d’élevages respectueux du bien-être animal, garantis sans mulesing. Les fibres sont sélectionnées pour leurs propriétés naturelles - respirabilité, régulation thermique et résistance - et transformées avec des procédés compatibles avec la matière afin de préserver la peau comme l’environnement. Les certifications GOTS et IVN BEST encadrent l’ensemble de la chaîne : traçabilité complète, absence de substances nocives et conditions de travail équitables.

    Chez Disana, la durabilité dépasse le produit lui-même. Réutilisation des chutes textiles, réparabilité des vêtements et transmission du savoir-faire font partie intégrante de la démarche. Les pièces sont conçues pour être portées longtemps, souvent transmises entre enfants, dans l’idée qu’un textile bien fabriqué peut accompagner plusieurs vies plutôt qu’une seule saison.
