OUR HISTORY: MORE THAN 100 YEARS DEDICATED TO WOOL

Our grandfather, Julián Cobo, began learning these trades in the Victoriano López blanket workshop. Family without direct descendants, Julián was welcomed as another member of the family

Julián takes control of the workshop and moves to a small workshop on the outskirts of Mota, on Camino Real Alto, 42. There he worked from dawn to dusk. A few years later he married Misi with whom he had four children. Two of them, Teodoro and Ramón, learned the trade that their father passed on to them with love and dedication.

The tractor and agricultural machinery begin to gain importance in rural towns and this drastically decreases the sale of mule blankets and agricultural work.

Julián along with his sons Ramón and Teodoro are forced to stop the looms and focus their efforts and work on the preparation and spinning of wool fleeces for carpet and rug manufacturers.

Teodoro and Ramón marry two sisters, Alicia and Eva. Both families, in addition to surnames, share a house and form a very united family. So much so that their children will be raised as siblings: Leopoldo, Raquel, Jesús, Marta, Eva, Rebeca, Sonia and Ramón.

After gaining prominence and prestige as manufacturers of high-quality wool yarns, they installed a small wool laundry in Mota del Cuervo.

Wool begins its most brutal retreat. Its consumption begins to decline drastically due to the strong pressure of synthetic fibers. Added to the problems of lack of demand are the decentralization of production processes and strong competition from products from Asia.

In a tragic accident, Teodoro loses his life and Ramón (father) asks his and Teodoro's children for help to help him maintain this job. Something that was not new for them since they already knew the work of having

Wool loses almost all of its value and prominence, creating economic losses not only for local shepherds but also putting primary production processes like our family's in serious danger of viability.

After seeing that the Mota laundry is one of the three that are still alive of the more than 70 that came into existence, the time has come to act so as not to have to end up closing. That's how we decided to create the Wooldreamers project.

Wooldreamers creates a bridge between local shepherds and the conscious final consumer, who mainly through their stocking needles give value and dignity to a craft and a fiber as important as wool.

We restore and rehabilitate the same space where our grandfather Julián's looms resonated for the last time, providing it again with artisanal looms that give life again to the family's original craft.

We created Wool4life with the objective of, through ethical and avant-garde craftsmanship, creating an engine with which to continue giving back to this fiber and its crafts the value that they should never have lost.
