This premium sock yarn is produced from rare breeds of sheep in Germany. The Schafpate badge documents the path from the sheep farmer to the consumer. The sheep farm of the family Smietana takes care of the Schafpate sheep. Every year there is a meeting at their sheep farm, where all the sponsors can visit their sheep and get to know the work of a sheep farmer. Part of the sales proceeds from the Schafpate sweater and sock wool collection will benefit the local area.
