Why choose natural yarns?

Wool is good for the environment

​

It is natural, renewable, and biodegradable. When it decomposes in soil, it releases nutrients into the earth. It biodegrades very quickly, unlike synthetic yarns, which take many years to decompose.

​

Wool is resistant to mold & mildew

​

As we know, mold and mildew need a damp atmosphere to thrive on. Wool does not provide this as it naturally wicks away any moisture.

​

Wool is 100% natural

It is grown all year round on sheep who are kept in natural conditions with access to grass, water, sunshine and fresh air.

​

Wool reacts to changes in body temperature

​

It has the amazing ability to react to body temperature, so it keeps you warm in Winter and cool in Summer.

​

Natural yarns biodegrade much more quickly than synthetic yarns

​

Synthetics such as acrylic take up to 200 years to biodegrade, compared to a yarn such as T shirt recycled yarn which takes no more than 6 months to fully biodegrade, and linen which takes a similar time to T shirt cotton yarn.
