Collection: Falkland Wool
The Falkland Islands are located near the South Pole in the South Atlantic Ocean. Sheep farming is one of the major economic activities of the islands. The Falkland Islands are home to a great number of Polwarths sheep (an Australian breed) and purebred Merinos. There's also a strong history of Corriedales in the islands.
The high-quality wool of sheep raised on the Falkland Islands has a much higher degree of whiteness than regular wool and is characterized by its strength, elasticity and softness. There are no known sheep diseases on the islands, so the living animals don't go through the chemical dipping that occurs in other areas of the world to control parasites. This together with the islands' climate might explain why the fleece from the Falkland Islands is particularly white
