*The only wool used is pure natural mohair wool, traditionally woven on old handlooms. There may be slight differences in product dimensions because of this. (± 2" or 5cm)
*Does not contain chemical dyes. It is woven in Angora goat's own colors beige, gray, black, white, and brown. For this reason, there may be slight differences in the color tones of the product.
*You may wash your wool blanket in the washing machine on the wool cycle. Before washing, using a mesh laundry bag would protect the wool from the drum. Do Not Use a whitening. Dry cleaning is recommended.
*Wool is a very soft and delicate material. Please note that like with every wool the slight shedding of fibers is normal and not indicative of any defect.
It will last longer with proper care.
Why Should You Include Wool in Your Life?
- Wool is a natural material that humanity has used for thousands of years. Wool is a natural protein fiber found on the backs of the millions of sheep you see worldwide. It is considered one of the most effective forms of all-weather protection, and man-made fibers with the same properties have yet to be produced.
- Wool is a natural biodegradable material. That's right, it naturally decomposes into the soil releasing valuable nutrients back into the earth. Compared to synthetic materials, it's a very quick decomposer too!
- Wool is a renewable material. For as long as there's grass to graze, sheep will grow to produce a woolly fleece, a renewable fiber source. And woolgrowers actively work to protect the natural environment, enhancing the sustainability of the wool industry to enable future generations to benefit from this warm natural material.
- Wool is a breathable material. As wool fibers are packed together, tiny pockets of air form allowing the material to absorb and release moisture. This could be moisture in the atmosphere or inspiration from the wearer. This makes wool an extremely breathable material and helps you avoid clamminess when you head inside from the cold outdoors.
- Wool reacts to your body. Wool is also able to react to any changes in your body's temperature. It's an active fiber that helps you to stay warm when it's cold and cools you down when it's warm. This makes it the perfect material all throughout the year, helping you minimize your wardrobe and maximize the sustainability of your closet!
- Wool is a static-resistant material. As wool can absorb moisture from your body or the surrounding air, it rarely creates static electricity like synthetic fibers do, keeping you cozy and comfortable and avoiding any awkward clinging.
- Wool is a material that is easy to clean. As its primary function is to protect the body of a sheep from the surrounding environment, wool fibers have a natural protective outer layer. This helps to prevent any marks or stains from being absorbed, so the dirt sits on the surface and is easily removed. See our guide to How To Wash A Wool Jumper here.
- Wool is anti-wrinkle. Each wool fiber is structured much like a coiled string, allowing it to return to its natural shape after being bent, so woolen items tend not to crease or wrinkle. This makes them the perfect addition to your everyday bag or great items to pack when you're going on holiday.
- Wool is naturally odor-resistant. As wool can absorb the moisture from your skin, and therefore the sweat when you perspire, wool can even help to absorb any odor from sweating that is only released upon washing. So wool clothing is great for layering up post-workout when you need to brave the cooler air outside.
- Wool comes from nature and is therefore an eco-friendly material. And last but certainly not least, wool has eco credentials! It's a natural, renewable product that biodegrades much quicker than synthetic fabrics. It's got a long lifespan and is frequently and easily recycled and reused. It is also a carbon store; pure organic carbon makes up 50% of the weight of wool. And research is now investigating the health and well-being benefits of wool. Wool bedding and sleepwear have been associated with a better night's mod, promoting sleep onset and improving sleep efficiency. Merino wool has also been found to help people that suffer from chronic skin conditions, despite misconceptions of it being “itchy”, due to its moisture and temperature management qualities.
