Warm up with The Wool Company

Harry and Sarah Mayman know a thing or two about keeping warm. They moved back to Cornwall when they discovered they were expecting their third child and bought the remains of a very run down farm on the edge of Bodmin Moor planning to renovate the stone barns for tourism. Higher Hill Farm had previously been a successful wild boar farm but had had problems with escapees. Unfortunately after the wild boar left, most of the topsoil had gone too: the only animals Harry and Sarah could find that could live comfortably off the land were goats and the only goats they could find that wouldn’t jump over the fences were angora goats which produce mohair. It only took a winter in their freezing, drafty stone farmhouse, made worse by Harry’s reluctance to buy heating oil, to discover the benefits of wool on their feet. And so The Wool Company was born.

Our favourites from The Wool Company range are the pretty angora bed socks http://thefutureperfectcompany.com/shop/items/52/angora_blend_bed_socks_powder_blue, and the lambswool throws which are guaranteed to bring cheer and warmth on these chilly days http://thefutureperfectcompany.com/shop/items/130/classic_lambswool_throw__plum.
