Wool 60/Flax 40 (Top)
60% Wool / 40% Flax
Very clean combed top in an interesting heathered blend of ash-grey, soft tan and cream. Staple length is around 5 to 6 inches. This blend is softer than you might imagine, with what is obviously a Finewool of some type and a good grade of flax. It seems well-prepared and should be easy to spin. We wonder if it might just work for lace weight yarn. Feels plenty soft enough for midrange to outerwear garments.
This could be dyed with acid dyes for a streaky effect. Might it work for felting??
