FAQs
Merino wool is a natural fiber from Merino sheep. It’s a distinct type of wool, rather than a separate material from wool.
Merino wool typically has finer fibers than many other types of sheep’s wool. Fiber thickness, yarn construction and knitting method all contribute to a finished garment’s texture.
Merino wool appears in sweaters, shirts, socks, base layers and accessories. Designs range from fine-gauge knits to more substantial knitted styles.
A merino wool blend combines merino wool with one or more other fibers. Check the fiber-content label for the materials used and the percentage of each.
Follow the garment’s care label, since washing and drying instructions vary. Some merino wool pieces are machine-washable, while others call for hand washing or dry cleaning.
