This product is 100% Australian Merino sheep wool which was felted in a special way to prevent shedding and pilling on a knitted product
BeCozi store is the only store in US with Felted super chunky Merino wool available as it was custom felted according to our "know-how" process
Felted Merino can be washed
Felted Merino wool is thinner and harder than regular Merino wool but a knitted item becomes softer and fluffier with usage
To speed up this process: place the knitted item into a dryer on a lowest heat for 5-10 minutes depending on a size of the item
Make sure to buy enough for your project, your next order color/thickness may be slightly different
