Wool

Merino wool, coming from the Merino sheep breed, a Spanish sheep that over time has also been widespread in Australia and New Zealand, is one of the most appreciated natural fibers in the world of fashion and DIY.

The merino wool production process begins with the careful selection of the Merino breed. Breeders focus on genetics obtaining sheep with superior quality wool fiber for softness and fineness. Safeguarding animal health is essential to guarantee the quality and ethics of production.

Sheep welfare is one of the most fundamental priorities in the production of high quality merino wool. The farms adopt sustainable practices, offering ample pastures and ensuring adequate veterinary care. Production ethics are increasingly important to consumers, pushing them towards higher standards.

Sheep shearing requires skill and attention from the shearers who ensure that the process is quick and painless for the animals. The collection of long, thin fibers guarantees high quality for the production of fine yarns.

After shearing, the fibers are classified according to length, fineness and purity. This classification process is essential to ensure that only the best fibers are used in the production of the yarns ensuring the highest standards of excellence.

The selected fibers are subjected to a spinning, carded or combed process as needed, to obtain soft and resistant yarns, while preserving the natural characteristics of the merino wool itself.

With merino wool yarns you can create a wide range of knitwear; pullovers, scarves, hats, blankets...etc. The production process of merino wool yarns is an art that combines the skill of farmers, artisans and designers to create fine garments that represent excellence in fashion.
