Black Sheep Wool
We use the yarn from the Black Welsh Mountain (which gives our darker shades) and the Welsh Mountain (the oatmeal colour) sheep breeds. When we started out the Black Welsh was on the endangered breeds list. Now, having as it does, a commercial future it is abundant in England and Wales. Its natural properties are perfect for the outdoor life: Warmth, comfort, durability, strength and beauty. But it also has the advantage of being naturally oiled which means it shrugs off dirt and makes it water resistant. Wool has protected man from the elements for centuries and it is no surprise that even with the development of man made fibres over the last few decades that it is now enjoying a strong resurgence.
The colours we are selling on the website are:
Light Grey Welsh ( natural undyed oatmeal colour)
Dark Grey Welsh (natural undyed browny/grey colour)
Natural Twist - Light grey and dark grey twisted together. (natural undyed)

from 159 reviewsThis is the 3rd cardigan I have ordered online and delivery was quick! The quality is unmatched and I wouldn’t buy from anyone else

Been purchasing Welsh Mountain wool products from Black Sheep for years. These are the coziest, warmest fingerless gloves I've ordered by far! And so fuzzy. <3

Great quality at a great price and very efficient delivery

Warm, comfortable and stylish.
Dog walking has become much more pleasant.

I had my first black sheep jumper for years. It didn’t shrink but I expanded so it was retired via a charity shop and I invested in a more suitable size! Great look, great feel and so warm. If the new XL version lasts as long as the other one I’ll be very happy.

Bought for my son to keep hands warm when working from home, on Computer. He said they are great , good quality and do a great job.
He actually asked me to order another pair.
Thanks for lovely product and great that made in UK.

It is the ideal made tangible.

Je merk het als je de trui aantrekt . Oerdegelijke trui zoals
Moeder hem vroeger breide . Warm , sterk , dit wordt mijn
Lievelings item bij koude dagen.
Bedankt Black Sheep . Doe zo verder.

I was unsure which size I needed and Robert was excellent in helping me and double checking the cardigans sizes. The wool is wonderfully thick, heavy and warm

I saw the Black Sheep cardigan in a local shop in Cologne, Germany. In general size L was ok for me, but for my long arms the sleeves were too short. I contacted the Black Sheep team to ask if it would be possible to check if they had a cardigan with slightly longer sleeves. I received a very friendly reply from Robert, who told me that he would check the ones in stock. A short time later he wrote to say that he had found one that would suit me. I received the cardigan shortly afterwards and it fits perfectly. I like the texture of the wool and it gives a very comfortable warm feeling. I am very happy with the products and the extremely helpful service!
