These sheep originally came from Spain, but today, they thrive in the vast, open landscapes of Australia and New Zealand, where the cool mountain air and rolling pastures create the perfect conditions for their fleece to grow.\r\n\r\nWhat makes Merino wool special isn\u2019t just where it comes from, but how it\u2019s grown. Each year, these sheep naturally regrow their fleece, providing a renewable, biodegradable fiber that\u2019s both soft and durable.\r\n\r\nMerino sheep are typically sheared\u00a0once a year<\/b>, usually in spring. This helps keep them comfortable in warmer months and ensures their wool is harvested at its best quality.\r\n\r\nOn average, a single Merino sheep produces\u00a04 to 5 kg (8 to 11 lbs) of wool per year<\/b>, but this can vary depending on the breed and environment. Some high-quality Merino sheep, especially those bred for ultra-fine wool, can yield up to\u00a015 kg (33 lbs)<\/b>\u00a0in exceptional cases."},"About_Our_Yarn":{"origins_our_yarn_heading":"About Our Merino","origins_our_yarn_paragraph":"We buy our Merino from local supplier as well as from India.
