Arles Merino Wool
Origin: France
Certificates: Oeko-tex
- Arles Sheep is a breed of sheep that produces Merino Wool, which developed in the South of France.
- Most of the sheep are used for their milk and meat.
- A large chunk of the wool today is wasted, as wool production has moved to Australia and South Africa where costs are lower. Breeders don’t have enough spinners buying their wool anymore, so the wool often remains unused.
- Some small local workshops in the area still use the wool recognized for its notable curliness.
- Like regular sheep wool, the fiber is biodegradable and comes from a renewable source.
- It absorbs moisture without feeling wet or cold, is antibacterial and has odor-fighting properties.
- Wool also regulates body temperature and is breathable.
- The natural crimps of wool allow the fabric to maintain its shape well and endure stretching.
Merino wool doesn't need to be washed often because it's naturally stain, odour and crease resistant — its fine fibres have natural antimicrobial properties that keep it feeling fresh between wears. To reduce washes, you can air your garment out, steam, hang it up while showering, use a delicate fabric refreshing spray or brush it. Spot clean stains immediately when they appear, because stains can be hard to get off after a while. Hand washing is preferable. If you prefer, you can also wash merino on a delicate or wool wash programme. To protect the surface of the fabric, use a washing bag and turn the garment inside out. Use enzyme-free, pH-neutral laundry detergent. Enzymes in regular detergents break down protein-based fibres like wool. Do not use bleach or fabric softener, as they can damage the fabric.
Dry your knitted wool flat; it might stretch if hung. Knits should be stored folded, as hanging knitwear can change the shape. Put cedar wood or lavender in your drawers and make sure your knitwear is clean when you store it to avoid moths.
