Galway Wool is quite unique because it comes from a heritage breed of sheep that have been in Ireland for over a century. The wool is known for its springy character and great stitch definition which makes it ideal for projects like Aran sweaters, cardigans, and other textured pieces. The wool is also quite durable and breathable, but has a soft, airy hand so it never feels weighty in an allover cable knit pattern.
In terms of care, it’s recommended to hand wash and lay flat to dry to keep it in top shape. And because it’s a heritage breed, it also supports sustainable farming practices, so it’s a great choice for eco-conscious crafters.
