Ukrainian 100% Merino Wool Throw Blanket
Remove 10 pieces of plastic!
Wrap yourself in sustainable comfort.
100% Merino Wool Throw Blanket, sustainably sourced from Merino sheep in New Zealand. Known for its ultra-soft, hypoallergenic fibers, Merino wool is finer than traditional wool—making this blanket itch-free, breathable, and perfect for sensitive skin. Ideal for year-round use.
Skilled artisans care for Merino sheep—who naturally grow a new coat each year—and harvest the wool to keep them healthy and stress-free. The result is a blanket that’s as sustainable as it is stylish. The perfect addition to any eco-conscious home.

Ethical Animal Practices & Responsible Sourcing
We are committed to humane treatment of animals and only source from producers who meet strict ethical standards. We do not sell products made from wild animals or those involving harm, injury, or animal testing. Some items feature responsibly sourced fibers from domesticated animals like alpacas and sheep, whose seasonal shearing is essential for their well-being. These fibers come from small-scale, humane, and artisans under fair trade operating.
Our Approach to Wool & Animal Welfare
At Free the Ocean, animal welfare is paramount. Some of our items, such as wool blankets or alpaca mittens, are made from natural fibers that come from domesticated animals like sheep and alpacas.
Animals like these have been bred for centuries to grow thick, abundant fleece. Because of this, they must be shorn regularly, particularly before warmer months. Shearing helps prevent heat stress and supports the animal’s overall health and comfort. If fleece is not removed, it can become heavy and matted, trapping dirt and moisture and potentially leading to skin infections, parasite infestations, reduced mobility, and even starvation.
To ensure responsible sourcing, we require that the artisans and producers we work with follow humane animal care practices. Our standards include:
• Animals must be treated humanely and responsibly.
• Wool and other fibers must come from domesticated animals that benefit from regular shearing as part of their normal care.
• We do not sell products made from wild animals.
• We do not sell cosmetic or other products that have been tested on animals.
By working with partners who prioritize ethical treatment and responsible practices, we aim to offer products that align with our values while supporting artisans and natural materials.
