Material (detailed):
Made from a premium mix of brushed alpaca and silk, it’s as natural as it gets.
Brushed alpaca comes from the Huacaya alpaca and is known for its soft, lightweight fluffiness and airy texture.
Originally from the Altiplano, the Andean highlands of South America, alpaca has excellent temperature-regulating and insulating properties, making it ideal for all-season wear.
Silk adds smoothness, strength, and a natural shine.
Crafting process:
Manually handcrafted using artisanal knitting techniques and manually operated machines at the wuulo workshop in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Care:
- wash only when necessary — wool is naturally self-cleaning, odor-resistant, and temperature-regulating
- hand wash in cold water and gently squeeze to clean
- avoid soaking or wringing
- if machine washing, use a dedicated wool cycle with the Woolmark symbol
- use a mild, wool-safe detergent
- lay flat to dry
- pilling is natural — gently remove with a lint remover
- always store flat
Labels and packaging:
wuulo uses environmentally friendly, non-plastic paper materials for its boxes and labels.
wuulo paper labels and passport are made from ecological blooming flower paper, which contains 95% recycled materials and 5% flower seeds.
don’t throw them away — plant them and let them bloom!
Inside the product box, you will find a product passport with details about the knitwear, crafting process and the artisan who handcrafted your piece.
