FAQs

How did Baabaazuzu get its name?

Baabaa is a sheep reference, and Zuzu is the owner and design originator, Sue Burns' nickname.

Where does Baabaazuzu get the wool?

We purchase by the ton what post-consumer companies like Goodwil Industries cannot sell. We salvage wool from all across the country, keeping about 3,000 pounds of textiles out of the landfills each month.

Baabaazuzu has retailers all across the United States, Canada, Japan, Korea and Australia; contact Baabaazuzu for a retailer search in your area. You may also shop here on our website or our showroom store--visit us at 1006 S. Sawmill Rd., Lake Leelanau, MI 49653.

Would you take my sweater or suit coat and turn it into one of your items?

Yes! we would be happy to take one of your treasured sweaters and upcycle it into something that you love and can wear once again.

How do I care for my Baabaazuzu purchase?

       1.  Spot cleaning

Wool is naturally stain resistant as you may have noticed, water and other liquids simply bead up and roll off. A stiff bristled brush can take care of a lot of stains. We love the old fashioned Goody brushes for this and they are great for removing pills on knits.

     2.  Machine washable

All Baabaazuzu apparel and accessories that are fleece lined or trimmed cannot be dry cleaned. These items must be hand washed with a gentle detergent. Lay flat to dry. Use your iron on the hottest setting to reshape.

     3.  Dry cleaning 

Baabaazuzu apparel and accessories that aren't fleece lined can be dry cleaned. We recommend this method of cleaning with our jackets and vests.
