Microphone scarf, for a little rock starThere’s something to be said for well-made kids’ accessories, right? Something else to be said for well-made kids’ accessories that sport some of the most adorable designs around.

But it’s something else entirely when we’re talking well-made, adorable kids’ accessories that are handmade with the softest wool by a forward-thinking graphic designer in England.

That’s exactly the story with Ann Moore’s beautiful knitwear. Inspired
by bold and graphic patterns that are cute but not cutesy,  Moore
meticulously creates knitted pieces for kids using her trusty Brother
knitting machine and heard-wearing wool that’s made to last. 

Cool Mom Picks Pick of the Year 2010The care she puts into every item shows. I mean, look at her La La Scarf–made with “tickle-free pure new wool.” Look at that microphone! It’s enough to let any kid’s inner rock star out.

Okay,
the pricetags on these gorgeous pieces are steeper than the stuff
you’ll find at the mall (the scarf is £54, or about $84). So if you have
a relative in London you can cajole into sending your munchkin
something this posh for Christmas–well, you better jolly well do it.  –Lexi
