Is wool from Merino sheep always labeled "Merino wool"?
Hello everyone,
I'm curious to know how much of the wool sold around the world is produced by merino sheep, but not labeled 'merino wool.' does anyone have an idea, or a lead? Thank you very much for your help! Ilya Zarembsky |

Most mfgs are proud of their Merino yarn and brag on the fact.
Merino comes in varying grades, however. Even coarse Merino is pretty fine compared to say, Lincoln or even Wensleydale.
