Corriedale Slate
NEW, November 2019! Deep and rich slate grey, a welcome addition to the range. Dyed 30-micron Corriedale wool top from Ashford of New Zealand.
Icelandic – Grey (Top)
Classification: DUAL-COATED
Clean combed top with minimal to no veg. Icelandic sheep have a double coat, and nearly always both types of hair have been carded together. This top is dark charcoal grey, liberally sprinkled with lighter grey. Makes a heathered yarn and gives intersting results when dyed. Best suited for outerwear and non-garment items.
Micron count is difficult to assign because of the double coat. Felting properties are excellent.

Combed top with little to no veg. Jacob are one of the few multicolour (and multihorned) sheep, of ancient origin. This top is a deep and rich black-brown peppered lightly with grey. Certainly soft enough to use for sweaters and a scarf or three.
Micron count is typically in the 27 to 35 range, with a staple length of 5 to 6 inches. Felting properties are good.
