The Web site recently says poly-viscose, rather than the old term "poly-blend." The last one I have is quite a nice feeling fabric. I suspect that they get them from different suppliers at different times, which may account for the poly-blend terminology.
I have 2 SK's nearly 2 years old, which have been worn quite a lot. The oldest one has pilled very little, and still looks quite good; the second one shows quite a bit of pilling. I wear them both often, thought not often away from my own yard.
I don't have any made of either poly/viscose or pure wool so far.
I highly recommend one of each!
