'Silent Night' brings Christmas to your dachshund's walk: stylised trees and snowflakes in taupe, cream and deep forest green, knitted from a soft alpaca blend.

By Alqo Wasi.

• Handmade in Peru, 50% alpaca, 45% Drytex, 5% wool: soft, warm and not scratchy
• Naturally temperature-regulating and breathable, gentle on sensitive skin
• Alpaca is naturally self-cleaning, antibacterial and odour-resistant: it repels dirt and doesn't hold on to smells
• Lightweight winter knit with tree and snowflake pattern
• Opening for the leash

Care: hand wash in lukewarm water with a mild detergent or shampoo. Gently press out the water and never wring or twist, as wet alpaca fibre stretches easily. Reshape on a dry towel, roll it up and press, then repeat with a second towel. Dry flat on a fresh dry towel and never hang it up. Store flat in a drawer or on a shelf.

If you prefer the machine: only in a laundry bag on a cold gentle cycle, then dry flat. No tumble dryer.

Small variations in shade are normal for handmade pieces.
