100% Polwarth Combed Top - Hand-dyed in the UK - 50g

100% Polwarth combed top

Polwarth wool is a dream to work with, whether you are spinning or felting.  It is almost as soft as Merino, and has a beautiful crimp and texture.  It absorbs light, which means it takes colour with a beautiful, velvety intensity. 

When felted or spun, it poofs up with a delightful squishiness.  It has plenty of elasticity, and is perfect for next to skin wear, such as scarves, gloves or sweaters. 

• Staple length is around 4-6 inches. 
• Even texture - perfect for fine spinning.
• Micron count between 22 and 25 (very fine and soft).

This Polwarth is sourced from the Falkland Islands.

Each braid weighs approximately 50g.
