Peruvian highland sheep, also known as "Churro" sheep, are a breed adapted to the harsh conditions of the Andean highlands in Peru. They are renowned for their hardiness, ability to thrive at high altitudes, and their valuable wool, which is often used in traditional textiles. These sheep have a unique appearance, typically featuring long, curly wool and a sturdy build, making them well-suited for the rugged mountainous terrain. Their cultivation plays a significant role in the local economy and cultural heritage of the region.

Which is better merino wool or peruvian highland wool?
It depends on what you're looking for. Merino wool is incredibly soft, and has a nice light hand, but it tends to be fragile. It doesn't always wear well, and is prone to fuzzing and pilling. It's lovely when softness is the main consideration, like for a scarf or baby items. But make an active boy a sweater of it, and the thing will be all pills and holes in no time at all. Peruvian Highland sheep are a cross between Merino (for the softness) and Corriedale (for durability.) You get a wool that is stronger and more durable, without losing too much in softness. It's a good all purpose wool, but not butter-soft like the merino.
