And blankets made from natural sheep wool are also healthy. At all times, wool has been valued for its healing properties. Woolen products are especially recommended for people suffering from radiculitis or rheumatism.
Blankets made from merino sheep wool deserve special attention. Merino wool is an ultra-soft, ultra-fine wool from a special breed of sheep raised in Australia.
In particular, Superfine merino wool has short fibers, which makes it significantly different from regular merino. It looks more voluminous and soft, this is achieved using a special spinning method, which consists of combing the raw fibers so that they intersect with each other. Therefore, the thread is able to hold more air, and this makes it warmer and almost weightless.
One of the most valuable and unique qualities of wool products is their high antibacterial properties and the ability to prevent the occurrence of unpleasant odors. Merino wool fibers, in addition to carotene proteins, contain protein cells that prevent the growth of bacteria, the waste products of which lead to an unpleasant odor.
Wool is also hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb water. At high humidity, the material can absorb up to 30% of moisture relative to its own weight without becoming damp to the touch, and slowly releases it into the environment.
The combination of merino wool and cashmere creates a unique tandem!
Cashmere is the undercoat of mountain goats of a special and rare breed. It is collected only once a year – in the spring. They approach the collection very carefully: they do not cut it, do not shave it like wool, but comb it out. Cashmere is especially valued for its lightness, softness and excellent ability to retain heat. Fine cashmere fibers retain a lot of air, adapting to external conditions. So at low temperatures the products retain heat, and at high temperatures they create coolness.
It should be noted that wool products require careful care. Therefore, to ensure that your blanket retains its unique properties and excellent appearance for as long as possible, follow our care recommendations.
