After shearing, it\u2019s spun in the traditional way in Donegal, dyed to GOTS-certified standards and produced in small quantities on purpose. Ultimately, it reaches your hands \u2013 here in Switzerland.<\/p>\n<h3>What exactly is organic wool?<\/h3>\n<p>Organic wool originates from sheep that live in a species-appropriate environment on certified organic pastures. No chemical pesticides, no aggressive processing, environmentally friendly dyeing \u2013 only natural quality.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, awareness of sustainable materials has shifted significantly. More and more people are paying attention to where their clothing, food \u2013 and even their yarns \u2013 come from. Demand for sustainable knitting is particularly growing in Switzerland. Conscious consumers value not only design, but also origin.<\/p>\n<p>At Aran Switzerland, we stock 100% organic wool yarn from Ireland that meets this need \u2013 directly from sheep pastures in Ireland to your knitting project in Switzerland.<\/p>\n<h3>5 reasons why organic wool is better<\/h3>\n<p>1. Skin-friendly and breathable: ideal for sensitive skin.<\/p>\n<p>2. Sustainable and biodegradable: no microplastics compared to synthetic yarns.<\/p>\n<p>3. Durable and shape-retaining: projects made of organic wool retain their shape for years.<\/p>\n<p>4. Transparent origin: traceable from the pasture to the yarn.<\/p>\n<p>5. Value instead of disposable product: a knitted project made of organic wool lasts for years.<\/p>\n<h3>What makes Irish organic wool special?<\/h3>\n<p>Ireland is renowned for its centuries-old knitting tradition. The Donegal region in particular has been synonymous with high-quality wool processing since the 19th century.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Our <i>Yarn Vibes<\/i> organic wool comes from a ninth-generation farmer in County Kildare. It is spun in Donegal, one of the last traditional wool regions in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>When you decide to buy Irish wool at Aran Switzerland, you purchase yarn with origins, history and character \u2013 and not an anonymous mass-produced item.<\/p>\n<h3>Buy Irish organic wool in Switzerland<\/h3>\n<p>At Aran Switzerland, you will find 100% organic wool yarn from Ireland \u2013 sustainably produced, dyed to GOTS-certified standards and imported directly from Ireland.<\/p>\n<h3>Our recommendations for your next knitting project<\/h3>\n<p>Kit for starters:<\/p>\n<p>\u2192 Kaylee Triangle Shawl<\/p>\n<p>Kits for classic Aran projects:<\/p>\n<p>\u2192 Riley Aran Hat or Sonas Tote Bag<\/p>\n<p>For sustainable gift ideas:<\/p>\n<p>\u2192 knitting kits with certificate of origin for the organic wool<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aranswitzerland.ch\/en\/shop\/\">Buy now sustainable Irish organic wool at Aran Switzerland<\/a><\/h4>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Von Irland in die Schweiz Unsere Bio-Wolle beginnt ihre Reise auf den gr\u00fcnen Weiden Irlands.
