Very clean combed top. A wonderful streaky blend of camel-tan camel down with creamy-white tussah silk, and super soft! Staple length is about 5 inches with a micron count in the range of 18 or so. Perfect for a lace spin or go thicker for a luxurious scarf. Both fibres accept dye well, and the streaky blend will be fabulous "au natural" or dyed as you wish.

Polwarth 85/Tussah Silk 15
85% Polwarth wool / 15% Tussah Silk Very clean combed top. A lovely soft blend from Ashland Bay that is just as beautiful in its natural ivory tone as it would be dyed. Polwarth is every bit as soft as Merino and much less commonly used in blends such as this one. NOTE: slightly more on the ivory/cream side than the photo shows.
