Our roving is hand dyed in the USA by Frabjous Fibers. It comes in an 8 oz. braid.
Frabjous Fibers takes extra care to create fibers that are a dream to spin. They start with high quality wool top. This one is a blend of 60% Superwash Merino, 30% Bamboo and 10% Nylon for strength. It is a dream to spin with a silky sheen and luxurious next-to-the-skin softness. The fibers are dyed using a special method that allows the colors to blend and shift, creating a complex colorway. Each batch is heated slowly and handled gently to avoid felting. This leaves a fluffy, soft, easily draftable wool that will spin into a lovely blended yarn.
Spinning: The combination of long, silky bamboo and springy merino is a treat to spin! When spinning yarn from more than one braid, mix the fibers up as you go for the best color distribution.
Felting: This fiber is not suitable for felting as it contains superwash merino.
