The time of snuggling under a wool blanket by the fireplace is almost over. But even in spring, summer, and autumn, a wool blanket is a good purchase. It keeps you cool in the summer and warm in the winter!
There are many advantages to this natural material.
From the long list, here are some examples of wool:
Wool is considered a circular fabric because as long as there is grass to graze on, sheep will continue to grow their fleece, making it a renewable fiber. And just like synthetic products, it does not require fossil fuels like oil in its production, so it is not harmful to the planet.
It is a completely biodegradable product, which means it has no impact on the earth. Other non-wool (synthetic) blankets will never be fully biodegradable and contribute to the ongoing pollution caused by microplastics.
The fibers in wool form small air pockets, allowing the material to absorb and release moisture, making it extremely breathable. It also reacts with your body! It is an active fiber that helps regulate your temperature and moisture, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.
Because wool is originally there to protect the sheep's body from the elements, it has a natural protective outer layer. This layer prevents stains from being absorbed, making them easier to remove.Most wool blankets can be washed in the washing machine. See the care label for instructions.
Wool fibers are made of proteins that are naturally flexible, allowing them to resist folding and creasing and return to their natural shape. During the production process, wool absorbs the dye, unlike other fibers, until it is fully saturated, ensuring that the colors remain beautiful for a longer time.
