Wool is a well known material, as old as the hills, but there are also lots of things not everyone knows about woolly hats and you have been asking us lots of questions. We thought we would collate some of them and put the answers here.

Wool has a multitude of qualities that make it so useful, but it has only been recently that scientific research has been developed to further our understanding of just how beneficial it can be.
