The Smoky Mountains, part of the Appalachian Mountain range, have a rich history that intertwines coal mining, gemstone hunting, and a vibrant array of wildflowers. Coal mining has played a significant role in both the history and economy of the Great Smoky Mountains, starting in the early 19th-century. Along with coal, gemstone deposits were mined, offering up garnets, rubies, sapphires and quartz crystals. However, one of the prettiest sights, are the famous fields of wildflowers blanketing the landscape and inspiring the nickname of “Wildflower National Park”. Lambswool is considered the highest quality of sheep's wool on the market. Taken from a sheep at its first shearing, lambswool is incredibly soft, smooth, resilient and has superior elasticity. The unique weaving process generates air pockets that retain heat while preventing moisture. Along with being natural, breathable and hypoallergenic, our lambswool can be worn comfortably against the skin.
