The Process
We pay attention to the sheep’s needs at all times, making sure they are looked after to the best of our ability here on Trevayne Farm, Monkstone near Tenby.
We shear on a yearly basis, with experienced local shearers to ensure a good quality fleece. The fleeces are then bundled based on breed and sent to be washed and spun. We design accordingly, based on the amount of wool we get from the breeds in our flock.
After the washing and spinning process, which usually takes around 2 months, we divide the kilos of wool. We divide it into oiled on-cone, washed on-cone (for machine-knitting or weaving) and hand-knitting skeins. From shear to wear, the process takes around four months. It’s slow production, we believe slow is best.
Composition & Product Care
Welsh Black Mountain wool's natural benefits include breathability, temperature regulation, and moisture-wicking properties, ensuring lasting comfort. This pedigree flock of sheep are a hardy breed with good resistance to the elements, meaning their wool is well-insulating and durable. Good lambing and mothering instincts form part of the breed’s characteristics. To maintain its exceptional quality, we recommend gentle hand washing in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Store folded to preserve its shape and softness. Refer to our How to Care for Knitwear Guide for more information.
