Merino Scarf | Pink Checked

Yes! Our knitwear is made from 100% natural wool, carefully selected for quality, origin, and sustainability. Without synthetic fibers, you'll enjoy the pure softness, warmth, and breathability of wool, ensuring your sweaters and cardigans stay beautiful for a long time.

Mulesing is a procedure performed on sheep that can be painful, and consumers are becoming increasingly aware of it. More and more people are therefore opting for mulesing-free wool.

Our wool is 100% mulesing-free and comes from small-scale European farms where sheep are kept with care. This ensures you receive animal-friendly, fair, and high-quality wool, produced with respect for people, animals, and nature.

Our knitwear is made from high-quality A-grade wool yarns with extra-long fibers. Thanks to this quality, pilling is minimal, but it's important to know that natural wool can always pill a little.

Light pilling usually disappears on its own or can be easily removed with a wool comb or de-piller. After 2 to 3 treatments, the surface of the sweater remains beautifully smooth, and pilling becomes less visible or no longer appears.

The difference lies in the quality of the wool yarns:

•⁠  ⁠A-grade yarns are longer and stronger, making them less prone to pilling, and your sweater will ultimately look good for longer.

•⁠  ⁠In comparison: C-grade yarns are shorter and often more affordable, but they continue to pill, even after removing the pills.

100% wool has a self-cleaning effect: because it contains lanolin (a natural fat), it acts as a kind of natural soap when it comes to contact with cold air. This means that your sweaters, cardigans, and scarves often stay clean without washing, which is sustainable and extends the lifespan of your clothes.

If you want to remove strong odors or stains, wash your wool gently by hand in cold water, or use a wool program in the washing machine. Note: only do this if you are sure the program is suitable for wool.

Dry your knitwear flat and store it folded, so that its shape is maintained. This way, your sweater or cardigan will stay beautiful and in shape longer!
