    Just to be accurate...these are the specifications of the Sheila Moon "dri-release wool fleece" material:
    "Dri-Release Wool Fleece": 11% Wool, 81% Polyester, 8% Lycra. Wicking, Anti-Bacterial, & UV Protection.

    I got the SM wool fleece hoodie for my daughter for Xmas (made from the same material as the "dri-release wool fleece" arm warmers), and it is indeed VERY "yummy fuzzy warm"! But we should note that it is actually only 11% real wool, and 89% polyester/lycra blend. It won't have all the typical characterisitcs (either good or bad) of real wool. Sure is soft and fuzzy, though!

    Okay - well it is the most wool I have in athletic gear (aside from my smartwool socks) right now, and I am really liking it. Maybe it's a good way to "break into wool"....

    It's as good a way to break into wool as any other...the SM hoodie was so incredibly soft and cuddly I had a hard time not keeping it for myself!
