If you're like me, you thought that wool was just sheared off of sheep with no harm being done to the animal. I just found out how wrong this is and would like to bring awareness to those who, like me, just didn't know. Please find wool alternatives.

Wow! I did not know that sheep were treated this way. I don't knit or crochet with wool and really don't want to. I feel that it's really over rated. So yeah I'm not gonna use wool period or even buy it to wear because who knows what that animal has been through.

It's not just boycotting wool that is used for crafts, but also any clothing that has wool or partial wool on the label. This practice is simply barbaric! I used to just think they sheared the wool and the animal was fine and left to grow the wool back, but....
