The virtues of wool
Here are some of the reasons why wool is an ideal material for hats and scarves:
The wool is naturally hot : thanks to its hollow and insulating fibres, the wool is naturally hot and allows to maintain the heat of your body. It is especially useful to protect you from cold in winter.
The wool is breathable : unlike synthetic materials, wool is able to breathe and evacuate moisture, making it comfortable to wear even when it is hot. It is therefore always good to have a small scarf or a hat in your wardrobe for the coldest days.
The wool is resistant : wool is a robust and durable material that is resistant to friction and stains. It also has excellent form retention, which means that it does not fade easily. Your accessory is not ready to leave you
Wool is ecological : wool is a natural material that can be produced ethically and sustainably. It is also recyclable and biodegradable.
By choosing wool hats and scarves, you enjoy all these benefits, while opting for a quality product that will keep you warm all winter. So don't hesitate to invest in wool accessories to stay warm all season !
Even for sport
Wool keeps the body warm when it is cold and cools it when it is hot, making it an ideal choice for outdoor activities.
It also has excellent recovery capacity, which means that it regains its original shape after each use, making it ideal for sportswear that should be worn often.
It is also naturally odor resistant, making it an ideal choice for long-term activities or high-intensity sports.
In summary, wool is an ideal material for sports clothing due to its breathable, thermoregulatory, durable and hypoallergenic properties. It offers maximum comfort and performance.
Thick or thin mesh
The workshop Baie des Caps has a real know-how and we are proud to be able to design authentic products in thick mesh and fine mesh
Wool is an increasingly valuable and versatile material that has been used by artisans in the Brittany region for centuries to make warm and durable clothing.
Here are some of the different ways to work wool in our workshop to make clothes:
Tricot: You've probably seen it before, it's a hand weaving technique that consists of threading knitting needles with wool and passing it over and below the needles to create a fabric. The Breton knitters are known for their hand knitted wool sweaters, which are very warm and comfortable.
Filing: Filing is the process of processing raw wool into yarn of wool. The Breton craftsmen often use a wheel to spin the wool, which consists of a handle with a manually operated wheel torso the yarn wool. We now use more efficient machines but the wheel breathes authenticity
Teinture: dyeing is the process of dyeing wool. Breton craftsmen often used plants and minerals to paint wool in different colours, creating unique shades of colours for their wool clothing.
Weaving: weaving is the process of fabric creation by entering wool wires. The Breton craftsmen often used manual or mechanical weave jobs to weave wool fabrics to make clothing. It is thanks to this process that we can determine the thickness of our wool
