70% Cotton 30% Merino Wool

This yarn has been crafted from a blend of soft merino wool and breathable cotton fibres.

Cotton fibres help to create a cool, comfortable and breathable finish.

Merino wool is a very fine wool fibre that creates a soft, fluffy finish. It is breathable and temperature regulating, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.

The merino wool used in this yarn was sourced from non-mulesed Australian sheep.

We began working with Deutsche Bekleidungswerke (DBW) in 2022. DBW are a socially and environmentally conscious manufacturer located in Vietnam.

DBW have implemented a number of initiatives to mitigate their environmental impact, including a solar energy system, rain harvest system and the use of agricultural waste to operate their onsite boiler. This conscious approach is recognised by the company's platinum status under both LEED building standards, and Vietnam's LOTUS accreditation system.

In addition, DBW are regularly audited for their social compliance practices by Better Work, and hold SA8000 Social Accountability certification.
