CATEGORY 02 : WEATHERPROOF FIBERS
Natural Wool
Modern apparel retail has flooded the winter season with acrylic blends and petroleum-derived fleece that pill after three wears and shed microplastics into our waterways. Our wool directory returns to pure sheep fleece, where natural crimp, hollow fiber heat retention, and natural lanolin repel sleet and ocean spray.
The Fiber Integrity Standard
To qualify for Scandic Lover Monkey, wool must be sourced from flocks grazing open terrain, washed without aggressive chemical stripping that robs the fiber of elasticity, and woven or knitted at high tension.
32μm
Gotland Pelt Wool
High luster, silver-grey fleece from ancient Gotland sheep. Naturally curl-resistant, providing decades of outerwear resilience.
100%
Zero Synthetic Core
Many modern knitters run a polyester yarn thread down the center to cut cost. We accept exclusively mono-material wool compositions.
0%
Superwash Chemicals
We exclude chlorinated 'superwash' treatments that coat wool in polymer plastics. Our wool breathes, self-cleans in cold night air, and repels odors.

The Frost-Airing Care Ritual
Pure wool does not need aggressive weekly laundry cycles. Hang your knitwear outside on crisp sub-zero winter evenings; moisture vapor and frigid air reactivate natural lanolin, shedding odors and restoring elasticity effortlessly.
Moth Prevention & Summer Storage
When winter breaks, store heritage knitwear washed and completely dry inside unbleached linen zippered storage bags with fragrant blocks of red cedar heartwood.
