Wool's journey from sheep to sock

The wool’s journey from sheep to sock

On 24 and 25 May, we will be celebrating wool in the farmhouses in Lejre Land of Legends.
In Krikkebjerghusene – our historic homesteads from the 1800s – the sheep will be sheared with the traditional sheep shears, just as it was done back then.
We take a closer look at the freshly sheared sheep, sort the wool and transform it with skilful hands. The day is rounded off with a classic carding guild where we process the wool together and share stories, laughs and old skills.
Come and follow the journey of wool – from sheep’s back to warm socks.
