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)

Let customers speak for us
This the second such item that I have purchased from Black Sheep Knit Wear... I can only say that the quality of product is surpassed by none... and the customer support is unequaled... an absolutely wonderful experience doing business with Black Sheep... My highest compliments of "Kudos and Golf Claps" to their entire team!!! Cheers!
Great jumper. Very nice quality and the customer service is fantastic.
Highly recommended.
Great colour and fit.
This is a top quality jumper. Looks and feels hand made and has attracted lots of compliments even from my grown up children so it must be good !
My old jersey lasted nearly 7 years, without losing its features. Washing with a special program in washing machine wasn’t the right idea. The jersey shrunk so I bought a new one. Hopefully it will last maybe 10 years or more. The wool stays in excellent condition .
I bought 3 pairs- all young people delighted! Warm cosy and comfortable. Beautifully knitted and crafted. Very happy to buy locally and that natural undyed wool is used: This attracted me to the web page. Recommend highly and will purchase again
