It's like cashmere
Fluffy scarf

Having a warm neck on a cold day can give you a sense of relief and security.
I created a scarf that will give you that feeling.

Light and warm.
Soft to the touch

The yarn used is a fine, high-quality wool called "Black Merino." You might think that thin yarn would make the jacket cold, but it actually traps a lot of air, making it warm and surprisingly light.

Also, because the yarn is thin, it doesn't feel itchy, so it's an item that we can confidently recommend to people who don't like wool.

The large size makes it suitable for use as a shawl or lap blanket.

The size is 50cm wide and 200cm long. It's a perfect size to wear as a shawl or as a lap blanket. It's warm but thin, so even if you fold it in half and wrap it around your neck, it doesn't look bulky, so it's useful both inside and outside the house.

The color is the natural color of sheep's wool.

The color shown here is the natural color of sheep wool. This fabric was developed using the wool of the "Black Merino," a rare breed of sheep that is rare in the world. Because it is a natural color, it has a gentle atmosphere that goes well with anything.

Development Story

Warm items are essential in the cold Itoshiro area. That's why we developed this Black Merino. We're particular about natural colors, not chemicals, and we've been testing vegetable dyes and other methods to see if we can achieve that with wool. But we discovered that there are already colored sheep out there!

No dyeing is required, so I immediately went to various weavers to find the most eco-friendly way to make the fabric. The knitter is one of the leading knitters in Japan, handling high quality wool . A long-established weaver in Osaka , they have highly skilled techniques and produce high-quality materials that are on par with cashmere.

This colored sheep fabric was made possible because we have a small number of sheep and we are a small brand, so we can only produce small lots.
