MATERIAL
70% Organic Cotton 30% Wool
Knitted from organic cotton and responsibly-farmed wool, this yarn has a soft, smooth finish. Cotton is a natural plant fibre. It is known for being breathable, durable and soft. Organically grown cotton avoids the use of harmful pesticides and chemicals in the farming process, helping to maintain good soil health, and reduce water & nitrogen pollution compared to conventional cotton.
The cotton fibre in this fabric was organically grown in Turkey. Wool is a natural animal fibre. It is known for maintaining warmth while offering breathability, making it a comfortable fibre for layering.
The wool for this fibre has been sourced from farms in Western Australia that meet global best-practice standards for responsible husbandry practices which ensure that the sheep are treated with respect and that due environmental care of agricultural land, soil health, waterways and biodiversity is taken.
