This is a natural 100% British wool which can be used for stuffing and needle felting. It has been carefully washed and dried in the UK and has not been bleached or subjected to any chemical processes. It is a light cream colour and can also easily be dyed.
It is the natural choice for children’s toy and pet bed stuffing, as well as pillows, cushions and other household items. Natural wool’s advantages over synthetic alternatives are clear; it is hypoallergenic, odour resistant, and a natural fire retardant.
But really, the sky is the limit with this wool stuffing so we encourage you to use your imagination and get creative! When you’ve been busy crafting and creating, do send us some photos. We love seeing your creations! For a sample pack, please contact us.
Why is wool a good material to use for projects and crafting?
Wool is fantastic for using for projects and crafting. It is the warmest and most environmentally-friendly type of filling you can use.
The wool in this filling is washed which smooths the wool fibres making them more pleasant to the touch and to work with. Although this filling is lightweight, wool is a strong fibre which ensures the filling doesn’t beard or migrate as you work with it. In fact, wool fibres are able to resist tearing and are able to be bent back on themselves over 20,000 times without breaking (basically, it is very forgiving when working with it!).
Wool is a great material for filling because of lots of naturally occurring properties. One of its main properties is that it is hygroscopic. This means that as the humidity of the surrounding air rises and falls, the fibre absorbs and releases water vapour. Heat is generated and retained during the absorption phase, which makes wool multi-climatic and trans-seasonal. When it needs to be, it is a natural insulator, reacting to changes in body temperature. This capacity to absorb and release moisture also makes it naturally breathable and odour resistant (releasing sweat into the air before bacteria has a chance to develop and produce unpleasant body odour). As we mentioned earlier, wool is also a very resilient which means when using it in pillows, compared to synthetic alternatives it is able to retain its shape in the long term without sagging or losing its shape.

We set up BLPT in 2019 as a ‘boots on the ground’ tree planting initiative. The company is run by us and the tree planting is done by us. We do it to help you and us to reduce our impact on the planet. The trees we plant reduce CO2 output as well as contribute to the reduction of flooding and the creation of habitats for wildlife.
BLPT isn’t a tick box exercise nor a distant and detached carbon offset company. In fact, this is as much part of our business as the products we sell and is an integral part of our ethos. We are big believers in the phrase ‘think globally, act locally’ and want to make a genuine difference
I purchased this wool rather than cheap/fake polyester stuffing for the various critters and dolls I am making. If I'm going to put in that much effort to make something, I much prefer a natural product that is going to last longer, be antimicrobial and be better to work with - as well a being better for the environment. This wool is perfect and so much easier to use than polyester fiberfill. Thank you!

Beautiful, local wool
I needed to practice making a hypoallergenic padded collar as part of my shoemaking training. Instead of using a synthetic material, I decided to use wool. The wool that I ordered from Chimney Sheep is gorgeous. It was well priced, shipped quickly, and made a beautiful padded collar.
