My ds has just developed eczema all over his body, and it is definately worse when he wears anything other than cotton. However, finding warm outdoor clothes for him is a nightmare!

Anyone know where I can get warm non acrylic or wool gloves, hats or scarves please? He is 5 by the way.

Do you know a knitter or someone who crochets who could make some hats etc for you?

I'm afraid I can help much. My lo has just developed it under his chin, neck and back of his neck. But I've bought cheap vests and baby gros and cut the necks away so he can get some air to them and so clothes don't aggravate for the time being while it clears-hopefully.

Poor mite. I had terrible eczema as a child and stayed awake for hours at night itching. Hope it clears quickly for him

I use this company, my dd gets psorasis so need cotton when she has a flare up.

Have you tried silk base layers? Very very warm and non-reactive. Think long johns and silk gloves to wear under thicker ones.
