This fake yarn is supposedly better for sheep.
Aimed at people who donât know where wool comes from, itâs 100% plastic. Yes, plastic.
So any garment you wash will release microfibres into the sea. Itâll never decompose.
Youâre supposed to believe that sheep shearing is violent and cruel. There are imbeciles out there that work in an unprofessional manner while shearing, but thatâs not the case overall.
Sheep donât suffer from having their fleece removed.
Left on, the fleece can become a home for fly eggs and the subsequent maggots which can eat the sheep. Chemical treatments are available to prevent that happening. Itâs much better for the sheep, the land and the farmer to avoid chemical use.
Donât be fooled. Wool is a sustainable material, one we should make more and better use of.
