This versatile fiber comes from the Falkland Islands. Orignally a merino it is now a distinctly different fiber with a soft feel that is easy to spin.   The fleece is washed in alpine water and are not invaded by insects so avoids being sprayed as the fiber enters the US.

In most of our colorways.

Hand Dyed   Woody Top

50% Superwash Merino / 50% Tencel         

This superfine Superwash Merino is 19 microns soft. It was professionally cleaned, combined with 50% tencel (environmentally friendly lyocell process from cellulose) and pulled through combs to make a smooth continuous top. I use ProChem and Cushing dyes to make my colorways, which seems to soften this shimmery combed top even more.

Lovely to hold, it spins beautifully. Imagine this running through your hands and seeing the colors blend and change. Split the snake lengthwise and spin at 36-40 wpi.  Then ply the two bobbins together and knit up into a unique pair of socks.  Also makes great baby garments.

20% Angora / 80% Merino Top

Soft, fuzzy and silky. 

Easier to spin than pure angora yet still wonderful to knit or felt or crochet.

• from sheared English Angora bunnies, sheared African merino sheep

   I took a ball of Clematis Vine. Split it lengthwise.  Spun up 2 bobbins at 40 wpi. Plied the two bobbins together and then knit this tam from a pattern in Arctic Lace.

   20% angora, 80% merino, - enough bunny to make the hat warm and fuzzy but not too hot.
