Hypoallergenic
100% Merino Wool
Suitable for individuals with sensitive skin
Merino wool knitwear is also suitable for individuals with sensitive skin and dermatitis issues. This is because the exceptionally fine fibres bend when in contact with the skin, thus preventing any itching or irritation. A study published in the Dermatitis journal has shown that individuals who wore Merino wool clothing reported an improved quality of life compared to those wearing garments made from other fabrics.
Please note: Some items can peel in the beginning because of rubbing. Don’t take the peeling of at the start. The peeling stabilizes after using for a while. The longer you use them, the prettier they get.
Merinowoolpeeling is natural and is not a quality defect.
All year round
Excellent Temperature Regulation
Merino sheep’s wool is highly crimped, with long fibers that can absorb and wick away moisture efficiently, holding up to 30% of its weight in water. Due to these properties, it provides excellent thermal insulation, making it especially suitable for babies who cannot regulate their body temperature. Therefore, these knitwear pieces are ideal for autumn and spring, as well as for cold winters and fresh summer evenings.
FAQ
Little to No Washing Required
Effective moisture-wicking and the presence of lanolin, a natural oil produced by sheep to protect their wool from extreme weather conditions, prevent the growth of bacteria causing unpleasant odours. As a result, frequent washing is often unnecessary. We recommend hanging the blanket outside in fresh air for proper ventilation. Washing in the machine is at one’s
own risk, as we cannot guarantee the individual program settings on the washing machines.
Wool is an animal fiber and therefor needs a WOOLSOAP. Cotton and linen are plant fibers and need a normal washing product.
Pre-Washed and Ready for Use
Before leaving our knitting facility in Dvorje na Gorenjskem, our products are carefully washed with natural and mild cleaning agents. This means they are ready for immediate use, and after the first wash will not alter their shape. The more you wash it, the more the lanolin goes out of the wool. All products are always washed in advance and thus get their correct
shape.
Mulesing-Free Certification
We exclusively use Merino wool that originates from farms committed to the Mulesing-free principle. Breeders pledge not to engage in unethical practices during sheep breeding.
Natural and Sustainable
Sheep produce a new fleece every year, making wool a fully renewable material.
- Wool fibre naturally decomposes, releasing valuable nutrients back into the soil.
Merino wool is sustainable and 100% renewable. It is very durable. Merinowool needs less washing than clothing made of other fibers due to lanolin (natural fat) content. This lanolin is also anti-bacterial and acts a natural soap when it comes in contact with moisture.
Washing Instructions
Due to the natural properties of Merino wool, frequent washing is often unnecessary. This fiber is selfcleaning because of the lanolin (natural soap inside the wool). We recommend airing the blanket.
If you wish to wash it, please follow the recommendations below. We advise using gentle, natural detergents at the recommended temperature with a low spin cycle. Dry exclusively in the open air without a dryer.
- HAND WASHING: Woolen products will not shrink when hand-washed in lukewarm water (30˚C) with a quality wool detergent and without soaking. Do not wring the item; allow it to dry on a flat surface.
- MACHINE WASHING: If you have a suitable washing machine, you can wash woollen products with a wool program (30˚C) and a low spin cycle.
If you are unsure about the above instructions for hand and machine washing, we recommend entrusting cleaning to professionals in dry cleaning facilities.
Merinowool needs less washing than clothing made of other fibers. Due to its fine structure, the wool repels bacteria and is therefore very easy to maintain.
So you don't have to wash products with Merino wool as often. The more often you wash, the less lanolin and therefore less protection.
Merino wool is a natural product that is very durable.
**Due to the use of natural materials, minor colour variations may occur in the final product, which is most noticeable in dark shades.
