Our merino wool comes from sheep bred in Patagonia, where muselsing is not practiced. The wool can be traced directly back to the farm it comes from. In this way, we know exactly which farm, farmers, and sheep made our wool. Merino wool has many excellent properties. It is temperature-regulating. That is, the wool keeps our bodies warm in cold weather, and releases heat in warm weather, keeping our skin cool. At the same time, wool, like silk, can carry moisture away from the skin, and can absorb 30% of its weight without feeling wet. All of our wool is independently certified to the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), certified by Control Union, CU 898826. This yarn is produced in Italy with high respect for animal wellbeing, and with social responsibility. Our spinning mill follows ethical, technical and environmental standards, creating yarns free from harmful chemicals. Wool is also dirt-repellent and requires minimal care.
