Merino wool (26x1)

Air date: Nov 03, 2025

Winter is just around the corner. Time to bring out the wool. And if you believe the retailers, there’s one type of wool that will truly keep you warm: merino. Exceptionally soft wool, from exceptionally generous sheep. But on quite a few merino garments, there’s an extra label: *mulesing-free*. What does that mean? The **Keuringsdienst** asks a simple question about shear wool and discovers that humans have made life rather difficult for some sheep.
