Information

A combing of special sorted fleeces, a great select quality. Whenever possible we try to source the best of the breed types to give customers that bit extra, this is one of those.

Wools from the Falkland Islands are always a nice clear white. The sheep are not dipped and are given minimum use of pesticides, so sheep from the islands are always that little bit special.

The Corriedale is an excellent choice if you're looking to spin a yarn for knitwear. The wools we get combed into the tops we have are a little finer than those offered elsewhere, great for knitwear and more robust than Merino.

Corriedale is also popular with 3D needle felters as it has good bulking properties and responds well to needle felting.

Excellent White Corriedale Fibre - Perfect for beginner spinners

Rating:

I bought this to be used by students at a spinning workshoop run for my WI. This is an excellent fibre for spinning and the long staple length makes it perfect for beginners. It is a soft fibre that returns a good, well-balanced yarn and takes dye easily. Equally good for experienced spinners who want to spin yarn quickly and easily too.
