Product Details:

MERINO WOOL TOP, WHITE
22 micron; very soft and easy to spin or felt.


A wonderfully soft, 18 micron fine wool, Merino is terrific for any next-to-skin garment. It takes dye beautifully and can be spun anywhere from thick and lofty to extremely fine for fabulous lace, and dyes beautifully with acid dyes (including food coloring and drink mix).

New spinners sometimes find it a little harder to spin than medium wools like Corriedale, meaning it may not always be a good choice for a first fiber. Finer and more sensitive than the medium wools, this Merino is easier to felt and retains its incredible softness in felted objects, but can be trickier to dye before spinning. This merino top is so soft, it can also be used for baby's garments.
