Premium Merino Wool
Crafted from 100% pure Merino wool, this throw is everything wool should be—luxuriously soft, breathable, and insulating without the scratch of ordinary wool. Merino’s fine fibers naturally regulate temperature, keeping you cozy on cold winter nights yet cool enough to use in the fall and spring. It is also moisture-wicking and durable, making this blanket a long-lasting companion for your home.
Authentic Aran Heritage
Every stitch tells a story. Inspired by the historic knitwear of Ireland’s Aran Islands, this throw features the honeycomb stitch (a symbol of hard work and luck), the cable stitch (representing strength and resilience), and the trellis stitch (signifying protection and home). Together, they create a richly textured design that carries centuries of Irish tradition into your living space.
Versatile Style & Color
Available in classic natural and vibrant green, this throw blends seamlessly with any décor. The natural shade offers understated elegance, perfect for neutral or modern rooms, while the green brings a bold splash of Irish charm. Sized at 60 x 40 inches, it’s the ideal layer for a bed, armchair, or sofa.
Comfort & Care
Designed for real life, Merino wool is strong yet delicate. To preserve its beauty, this throw should be gently hand washed or dry cleaned only. With proper care, it will remain as soft and inviting as the day you brought it home.
Perfect for Every Season
This versatile throw is more than a blanket—it’s an heirloom piece. Use it to add warmth to your bedroom in winter, keep it close in the family room for movie nights, or drape it over a sofa to bring instant texture and Irish personality to your décor.
Frequently Asked Questions about Merino Wool
Q: What is Merino wool?
A: Merino wool is a natural fiber harvested from Merino sheep, prized for its fine, soft texture. Unlike traditional wool, Merino is lightweight, breathable, and gentle against the skin while still providing excellent insulation.
Q: What is Merino wool made of?
A: Merino wool is made of ultra-fine fibers from the fleece of Merino sheep. These fibers are much thinner than regular wool, which gives Merino its softness, elasticity, and ability to regulate temperature naturally.
Q: Is Marino wool the same as Merino wool?
A: Yes. “Marino wool” is simply a common misspelling of Merino wool. The correct name refers to the Merino breed of sheep. When you see “marino wool,” it almost always means Merino wool.
Q: Is Merino wool itchy?
A: No. Merino wool is known for being soft and itch-free, even for sensitive skin. Its fibers are finer than regular wool, which makes it feel smooth and comfortable to the touch.
Q: What is Merino wool yarn?
A: Merino wool yarn is spun from Merino fibers and is popular for knitting and crochet projects. It produces garments that are warm, breathable, and soft enough to be worn next to the skin.
Q: Why choose Merino wool for blankets and throws?
A: Merino wool provides the perfect balance of warmth and breathability. It naturally wicks away moisture, resists odors, and is strong enough to last for years, making it ideal for home textiles like throws.
Q: What about Merino wool socks and clothing?
A: Merino wool is widely used in socks, sweaters, and activewear. It’s especially popular for outdoor gear because it regulates temperature, stays fresh longer, and insulates even when damp.
