We are committed to providing you quality natural products. Every item is handmade with 100% natural sheep wool which is grown, sheared and spun in Canada. We use natural colours - so no chemicals or dyes ever touch it. We believe the precious people in your lives deserve natural beauty, even the accents and details on our products are natural as we use wooden buttons and cotton string. Our blankets are machine washable in cold water and best left to air dry. Over time, the blankets will continue to develop and change as well become softer and worn in. Because sheep wool is flame resistant, it will never melt and stick to skin like synthetic fibres. It is also moisture repellent, mildew and mold resistant and will keep one warm even if it gets damp. These blankets will last forever, so go ahead and make one of these blankets your family heirloom.
