Our German Merino wool is airy, light and simply feels good. The knitted pieces are durable, warm and look very natural.
Suitable for all projects, especially for cuddly warm sweaters and winter clothes.

The natural merino wool comes from the foothills of the Alps in southern Germany and has also been spun there in a small family-owned spinning mill. Thus, from the rearing of the sheep to the dyeing, it has been produced entirely within Germany. The wool is completely natural.

The spinning mill has been family-owned for three generations and obtains the wool from the regional shepherds in the area.
It attaches great importance to sustainability and regionality, the wool waste that accumulates during spinning and preparation, for example, is pressed into pellets and can be used as organic fertilizer. The whole farm is also heated with climate-neutral wood pellets.

The sheep are out and about in the meadows of the foothills of the Alps and are only kept in the barn when there is too much snow and after shearing until the fur has grown back sufficiently. When they are outside, they change meadows several times a day. It is common for farmers and landowners to let the sheep out into their meadows, this fertilizes and keeps the grass short!
