1 lb corriedale top 1 lb of corriedale top. Great for beginners. Ready to dye or felt. The longer staple length of this fiber makes for easy spinning, and is great for a beginner. It is the fiber of choice for felting as it does not halo. |

Falkland Wool Top 1 lb. 16 oz of some great fiber. This fiber is a special buy, special price and when it is gone, it is gone! The fiber is 100% wool from the Falkland Islands. Now what is so special about the wool? This is what my supplier says about the wool, "There are no known sheep diseases on the islands that require dipping, so the are not dipped in any chemical bath," and "the wool is processed in Italy using snow melt from the Alps." What do I say about this fleece? I was amazed at the fineness, similar to merino or ramboullet, and it's bright whiteness. It has not been bleached, but is the natural color. |

Moorit Shetland Wool Top 1 lb. A natural brown, called moorit, fleece. 16 oz of some great fiber OH MY GOSH! Do I love this fiber. If you have never spun Shetland, here is your chance! A natural brown, called moorit, fleece, staple length about 4", easy to spin, and makes a soft, lofty yarn. |

Natural Light Brown Blended Wool Top 1 lb. 16 ounces of some great fiber. This fiber is a special buy, special price and when it is gone, it is gone! The fiber is 100% wool of blended fiber. The staple is 3-4 inches, soft and lofty. According to my supplier, the mill saves up the colored fleeces till there is enough to process, then it is processed all at the same time, producing a fiber, light brown in color, with darker and lighter fiber. This fiber will make some awesome overdye. When dying a colored fiber with your favorite technique, the results are colors deeper in hue and more vibrant than when dyed on white or natural color. |

Superwash Bamboo Merino Nylon 1 lb. A blend of 60% superwash merino, 30% bamboo, and 10% nylon. 1 lb of some LUXURIOUS fiber. If you are looking for some special fiber as a gift or to treat yourself, this is it! According to the bamboo suppliers, bamboo has antibacterial properties, and shines like silk. (spins a lot like silk as well). The added nylon will make for a very strong yarn......Did anyone say socks? |
Dyed Merino Roving

Ready to spin, fine merino roving. A fine merino top dyed in various colors.. Ready to spin or to blend with other colors for some awesome designer yarn.
8 oz each of some great merino wool colors. Merino has a long
reputation for being some of the finest fleece available, and soft enough
to wear next to the skin, even for babies. Merino is considered a down
fleece, and as such, the staple generally runs 2.5-4 inches long, and this
top fits within that range. It has great loft and whatever you make, it
will be warm. I really can't say enough about Merino. It is just about my
favorite fiber to spin! If you like soft, this is it. I am listing these
colors in 8 oz lots to make it more convenient to purchase several colors.

1 oz of firestar. Put a little glitz and glamour in your yarn. The flash
is nylon, very fine, and a little bit goes a long way. Just add small bits
of the fiber to your roving, and experience the glimmer and gleam. Turns the
most ordinary fiber into designer yarn. Blends and will reflect most colors.
