Merino Wool Collection
Extra-fine Merino wool is the most precious fibre in our studio: remarkably soft, never itchy, and naturally temperature- and moisture-regulating. That makes it the first choice for baby blankets, beanies and anything worn next to the skin.
In this collection you will find blankets for babies and the home, beanies, leg warmers and knitted sets — all made from 100% extra-fine Merino wool in our workshop in Dvorje near Cerklje na Gorenjskem, Slovenia.
FAQs
Why is merino wool better than regular wool?
Merino wool has finer fibres than regular sheep's wool, so it is softer and does not itch. Jakopina merino blankets and knitwear regulate temperature and wick moisture — which makes them comfortable for everyday use at home.
Does a merino blanket keep you warm in summer too?
Merino wool regulates body temperature, so a merino blanket keeps you warm in winter and breathable in summer. That makes Jakopina merino blankets suitable all year — on the sofa, in the bedroom, or on the terrace.
What percentage of merino wool are Jakopina products?
Jakopina merino products are knitted from a high proportion of merino wool (up to 100%), depending on the model; some pieces blend merino with cashmere for extra softness. The exact composition is listed on each product page.
How do I wash a merino wool blanket?
Wash a merino wool blanket by hand or on a wool cycle at up to 30 °C with a mild wool detergent, then dry it flat. Merino resists dirt and rarely needs washing — airing is often enough. This keeps a Jakopina blanket soft and in shape.
How are Jakopina merino blankets made?
Jakopina merino blankets and knitwear are made by a family knitting studio in Slovenia, with skills passed down since 1926. Each piece is knitted in small batches, so the quality of the work stays consistent.
