Shires in Fall

Hand picked, heavily skirted wool to ensure only the finest, softest wool for spinning, felting, processed at our local mill. This roving is excellent for various felting techniques and textile and fiber creations e.g. dreadlocks, jewelry making and much more.

Fine Shetland sheep wool is known for it's low micron count, this translates to a next to skin softness. Luxury superfine wool roving has a micron count of 20 and lower, this makes for an incredibly soft and fine wool, perfect for lace, and other intricate projects. Ensuring the highest quality, and most accurate information, we individually test the wool prior to processing.

This roving is a combination of our moorit, brown to solid black colored ewes, & lambs beautiful fleeces. Though we heavily skirt, and pick each and every fleece prior to processing into roving, some bits of vm still gets though.

Items are made in a smoke free, pet friendly environment.

On naturally colored wool: The fibers mixed with some white fibers, this is due to the natural Ag/Greying gene present in some of our sheep, we love how this creates a truly unique spinning & dying experience. When dying this wool, the variations of light to dark creates a depth of color you can't get with solid white wool!
