100% Spanish Merino wool raised by Loads Partner, Maria Pia Sanchez, on her ecological ranch, Dehesa de la Rinconada, where she carries on her family’s generational dedication to land conservation and the preservation of endangered Spanish Merino heritage sheep. 

Practicing transhumance, Sanchez's flock graze along historic seasonal migration paths forged by this breed over centuries across the countryside of Mérida Extremadura, revitalizing the pastoral lifestyle and raising resilient, net-positive, Spanish Merino heritage wool.

Spun by Wooldreamers, a family owned and operated spinning mill in Mota del Cuervo, Spain specialising in the manufacture of Spanish heritage yarns. Wooldreamers supports ranchers by paying them a fair price for the materials they produce, strengthening rural economies and ecologies through yarn production.

Cultivating botanical dye plants with biodynamic farming methods prioritizes the holistic restoration and enhancement of soil health, biodiversity, and ecosystem resilience. 

Loads’ seasonal harvests of colour plants from a growing network of biodynamic farm partners are delivered to the Dye Lab at Studio Claudy Jongstra, where they become colourful dye baths for Loads Collection textiles. This small batch dye process, informed by more than 20 years of plant-based pigment research, revives ancient colour-making recipes and techniques.
