Fine, clean, and a joy to work with, this organic wool batting is absolutely delightful. Indeed, just touching it can improve my mood! Feel the soft warmth of its fibers -- free from synthetics and phosphates, the wool is carefully and humanely sheared from organic sheep (organic food, no antibiotics, etc.). Each yard contains approximately 2.4 pounds of organic wool fibers, and the batting is 88" wide by approximately 1" thick. (Thickness varies -- if you compress it, the batting is only about 1/4" thick; if you fluff it as much as possible it can reach 2" thick in places.)

The batting can be manipulated for larger or smaller areas -- stretch it to fill a bigger space more thinly, or double or triple it where you want more thickness. You'll find this makes for incredible ease of use in so many applications -- not just bedding! Take advantage of wool's natural antibacterial and frame-retardant properties by using it for a comforter or mattress pad, or combine multiple layers to make a pillow. A pillow made of wool and a packet of buckwheat hulls is popular in Japan, combining soft comfort and firm support. Soft toys and dolls stuffed with organic wool have been loved for generations -- make some today, to start your own traditions.

Washed and formed in the United States, from US-produced organic wool, where workers ensure that all processes are done organically. No chemicals or soaps harmful to the environment, the wool, or the wearer are ever used.

Many people who are unable to tolerate conventional woolen products find themselves unaffected by organic versions; they're surprised to discover that the intolerance is not of the wool fibers themselves but of the many chemicals that can cling to non-organic products. Buy a sample and see for yourself! Also available by the pound as our Organic Wool Stuffing.

Due to the oversized packaging necessary to ship our batting, additional postage is occasionally necessary for multi-yard purchases. We will let you know if there's an additional shipping cost.

Hand-washing or dry-cleaning is recommended (we, of course, tend to favor the former); do not machine-dry unless you're trying to felt the wool.
