Mrs. Dholgar from McLeod Ganj, a knitter with years of experience in the making of woolen products.
Wool is a textile fiber gleaned from sheep and goats, and at some places, even from camelids and angora rabbits. Every year, sheep are sheared in the early spring so that the shaved fleece can be regrown for the coming winter and followed by summer. This cycle satisfies our demand for wool and the animal’s protection from the harsh climate as well. It is taken care that enough fleece and time are left for the sheep to prepare to insulate themselves during extreme weather. It is a natural filament that thoroughly absorbs moisture and protects against rough climate. Hence, we prefer clothes, blankets, and other things made out of wool cloth to keep ourselves warm and comfortable. The product types include Baby socks, adult socks, woolen caps, woolen bags, woolen lanterns, wall hangings, etc. Mrs. Dholgar from McLeod Ganj, a knitter with years of experience in the making of woolen products.
