May the "force" be with you !... Lambing season is nearly finished and sometimes it can feel like a Star Wars film. Each year brings its own quirks and many discussions on levels of sunshine, grass growth and some of the bizarre things lambs and sheep can do as documented by Henry Brewis. But they always makes us smile and everyone loves to chill watching lambs running races. We are taking part in the Strathmore Open studios event at the end of May were anyone can visit us here at the farm & meet the sheep & see the studio. In the UK , we have over 60 different breeds of sheep. Each breeds wool has very different characteristics & properties which we can used as a straight breed wool or as a blend when we want to combine different characteristic of the wool . Plenty variety to try. Our humble sheep grow the most amazing fibre for helping you sleep, indeed we believe everyone should have a wool pillow for the best sleep possible. We (Uan Wool) i.e. me, my farming family (& my humble sheep), handcraft bespoke wool pillows to suit an individual’s needs. Our artisan business is based on a traditional hill farm in the Braes of Angus, Glen Isla. We design & hand craft beautiful, quality wool pillows and warming gifts with our own homegrown wool, British wools, yarns & cloth, including fine Scottish woven merino. You are welcome to visit the studio here at the farm, please call or message first to let us know you want to visit. The wool wadding as backing material for making needle felt pictures, & little picture kits - can be found in my shop section "Angus Wools for crafting". Needle felting is good for the soul. I taught myself when I was prototyping for creating our pillows. This is still an ongoing process discovering how the characteristic of all the wools behave. We greatly welcome feedback & reviews on all our products - this tell us what we are getting right (or wrong) and helps provide information to individuals considering purchasing. As a wee business we are always greatly appreciative of customers reviews. Please remember we are happy to help with bespoke or custom orders too. Julie @ Uanwool

5 out of 5 starsBefore making a purchase, I phoned UanWool direct for advise, extremely helpful. My pillow arrived in just over a week, with Xmas card, hoping I would enjoy my new pillow. It takes a bit of getting use to but I am finally sleeping better with it. Yippee!

5 out of 5 starsLovely eye mask! So soft and breathable. Does a nice job blocking the light out as well. I'm very pleased and grateful to have found an eye mask made with natural fibers.

Frequently asked questions
Are your wool products easy cleaned?
Yes, they can be handwashed, machine washed on the wool cycle or dry cleaned. Remember sheep don't shrink in the rain, and we would never ever put them on the 90 deg. wash.
Is your wool organic?
Our sheep are managed to the organic husbandry standards on our hill farm. But we do not hold this certification yet. The organic certification process takes a min. of 2 years to convert. Currently we hold QMS Assurance Schemes Accreditations ( Member 014170).
What is "Uan" Wool
Uan is gaelic for "little lamb". We chose the name as it was the bedtime story we were reading our children. We thought it appropraite given our quest to improve our sons sleep, general health and well being that sleep gives. And reduce his need for his asthma inhaler and steriods. Our logo - the Blackface ewe & lamb represents a mothers bond, love and care. The Blackface breed are highly regarded for having the best mothering abilities of all the different sheep breeds.
Will wool bedding really help me sleep?
Yes, wool has so many natural anti allergy and self adjusting temperature properties it has been scientifically proven to create a micro climate around you in your sleep environment. Wool is also very durable, it will last a long time and as a natural material is very different from polyester or feather fill.
