We use wool in most of our bedding products, because we think it is simply the best material available for sleeping. Down feels nice when you first tuck yourself in, and it will keep you toasty, sometime too toasty. Down needs to be encased in a non-breathable cover, so it cannot readily absorb moisture, which means once you start sweating you can go from hot to cold and damp very quickly. http://blog.sleepysheep.ca/2010/03/wool-mother-nature-technical-fiber.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Chelsea Bell)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-452336361344454911.post-4072170683626646784Tue, 23 Feb 2010 03:18:00 +00002010-02-22T19:18:32.369-08:00 At SleepySheep, we use two main materials inside of our pillows and mattresses: wool and natural latex gold.
