Since 2020, Schoppel has led the industry by reinforcing all sock yarns with Amni Soul Eco®—a biodegradable nylon that breaks down in just five years, providing excellent durability while ensuring environmental responsibility.
Discover Schoppel's exceptional Patagonian wool, sourced from pristine landscapes where sheep roam freely across vast grasslands. This unique environment naturally minimises pest issues, allowing for pesticide-free, mulesing-free wool production.
These sheep enjoy complete freedom, gathered only twice yearly for gentle shearing and health checks. The result? Wool with outstanding long fibres, impressive volume, remarkable softness and exceptional durability – which is why Schoppel exclusively choose Patagonian wool for their hand-knitting yarns.
Experience truly ethical, sustainable wool that makes a difference!
Socks, scarves, jumpers and home accessories — each creation carries a piece of authentic German heritage.
