Available only as nature intended, Ecosse Pure’s shades and hues come entirely from the colour of the wool fleece on the sheep’s back - there are a number of varieties of Welsh Mountain sheep, named for their locality of origin or their appearance. The standard Welsh Mountain sheep is an ‘oatmeal’ type colour. We use this fleece to make our Light Grey Welsh sweaters. Black Welsh Mountain sheep (Defaid Mynydd Duon) are a much darker shade – dark brown, even. We use this fleece to make our Dark Grey Welsh sweaters.
The natural properties are perfect for creating warm, durable and comfortable sweaters. Every garment is unique. The wool contains natural oils (lanolins), which shrug off dirt and sheds water droplets. Biodegradable and ecologically friendly, Ecosse Pure sweaters are hard wearing, long-lasting and a beautiful addition to your clothing wardrobe
