Grown here in the New Zealand high country
Our Anyway Wrap is made by Native World in New Zealand using the finest materials known to man, superfine merino wool, possum fibre and silk.
New Zealand is known to be a beautiful country with breathtaking scenery at every turn. The pristine air and wide open spaces are the secret to growing a quality wool product.
At the heart of growing wool or any other product is care, care for the animals, care for the environment and care for the people who work so hard to grow the best wool, make the best wine and produce the best beef.
This care is summed up by the Māori words kaitiakitanga, tiakitanga and manaakitanga.

WHY WOOL?
Since the beginning of time man has known that wool is a superior fibre for providing warmth and comfort. There are over 3000 breeds of sheep in the world. They have been man's second best friend (after the dog) since around 8000 BC. Sheep naturally shed their wool, it snags on rocks and branches. Early man collected this wool. Later sheep became the first domesticated animal and were kept by nomadic tribes for meat, milk, their hides and of course their wool.
Our products here at North South Stewart use the wool of sheep to spin into yarn which is knitted into garments such as scarves and hats. Wool can be obtained from many animals such as the cashmere goat, alpaca (similar to a llama in the camel family), and mohair (from angora goats). Each of these fibres has different qualities and a different history. Sheep in New Zealand have a long history and it's one we are proud to support from Japan.
Wool is perfect for people who feel the cold deeply.

SHEEP OF NEW ZEALAND
Sheep farming is a significant industry in New Zealand. Sheep were introduced by early European settlers in the late 1700s and early 1800s, mainly for meat. Today New Zealand has a population of around 5 million people and over 26 million sheep. New Zealand growers have vast knowledge and expertise in producing the best wool.
There are many breeds and crossbreeds of sheep which fall largely into two categories -- for food production, lamb, mutton and milk; and for wool and fibre, used for clothing, carpeting and a myriad of other purposes.
The star of the show for clothing and woolen accessories is the Merino sheep. Merino are originally from Spain and came to New Zealand via Australia in the early to mid 1800s. Merino sheep thrive in the high country of New Zealand's South Island and this tough landscape lends unique properties to New Zealand merino wool. New Zealand merino wool is long, elastic and extremely fine. These characteristics are important especially when the final garment will be worn next to skin - the finer the wool the softer the yarn.
We at North South Stewart take pride in being part of the NZ sheep and wool textile industry in our small way and we are passionate about all of our products.

New Zealand Merino Sheep
Merino thrive in the drier climate of the South Island. The remote location and clean air means the wool grows whiter than any other merino in the world which makes is perfect for garment use - it takes colour so purely. Another little known trait of wool is that once it's dyed it rarely fades.

Grown with Care | Treated with Respect
New Zealand has some of the highest standards in the world when it comes to care for animals. Every animal on farm is lovingly nurtured from the time it is born as a wee spring lamb to the time it comes in for its annual shearing and all the times in between with wellness checks and visits from the vet.
Growers in New Zealand have often lived on farms their whole lives and inherited their farms and stations from their parents and grandparents before them. Over 500 farms in New Zealand have the honour of being Century Farms which means that one family has been farming in the same place for over 100 years - in some cases over 150 years! (source Century Farms New Zealand). Thousands of sheep on a large station may look like a faceless mob but they represent the livelihood of farming families across the nation. Each and every one is important to the farmer and is cared for accordingly.
It takes at least two years to learn how to shear a sheep efficiently, quickly and with minimal stress to the animal. Shearers are trained on the job and there are several nationally recognised shearing training courses, certificates and qualifications which ensure animal well-being and a superior yarn product.
By the same token, New Zealand has high standards in health and well-being for the people employed in any industry, including farming. Being given on-the-job training and support, a living wage and access to health and medical facilities is a right of every New Zealander and any person living and working in New Zealand.
We take care of our people. We take care of our animals. That care shows in everything we make.
