Our photos are very color-true, and our product descriptions already answer many questions. And for anything that remains, our service colleagues or our online chat agents are happy to help you order the right wool.

Schmeichelgarne.de is now soul-wool.com

Perhaps you still know us as Schmeichelgarne and are now surprised that you can't find this shop anymore. Don't worry, we're still here! We just have a new name. After 12 years, schmeichelgarne.de is now called soul-wool.com. Apart from the new name, which is a bit more international, nothing else is changing: every single product is still personally tested by me, Britta Kremke, the team is the same and works with the same passion you are used to. The prices also remain the same. Only the look is a bit more modern. If you want to learn more about the history of Schmeichelgarne and Soul Wool, feel free to visit our blog. Here's the link to the Blog post "Goodbye Schmeichelgarne! Hello Soul Wool!".

Buy GOTS-certified, mulesing-free organic wool

With around 50 organic yarnscurrently, including 21 GOTS-certified yarns, we are probably the largest provider of organic wool, organic cotton yarns, and natural yarns. Another focus is recycled yarns and vegan wool for knitting and crocheting. All our yarns are guaranteed mulesing-free and come from animal-friendly farming. With Manos del Uruguay we offer a Fair Trade certified brand. And Cowgirl Blues, although not formally certified, can rightly be described as a Fair Trade company. The selection is so large that we have even created a separate category for sustainable organic wool here.

Popular knitting projects

Of course, we have wool for knitting baby blankets, baby shoes, baby hats, or baby socks and simply everything you need to knit small projects for babies. What matters here? The wool should be soft, easy to care for, and come in beautiful colors, such as Merry Merino, BC Garn Bio Balance or Semilla GOTS. For those who prefer to knit socks, we have many different types of sock yarn in our range. Like the Kremke Edelweiss Alpaka or the hand-dyed sock yarn Alegria by Manos del Uruguay here, every sock knitter is guaranteed to find what they are looking for.

Free knitting patterns

Our patterns section is constantly updated and changed. Anyone looking for a beautiful knitting pattern is sure to find something here, whether it's a hat or a baby blanket or something else entirely.
