Polwarth and Yak Spinning Fiber - Last of the Summer Wine

60% Polwarth wool and 40% Yak Combed Top Spinning Fiber

Crafted with a soft and voluminous blend of Polwarth Wool and Natural Yak, this combination takes advantage of their inherent natural crimp and spring for a warm and gentle texture. Perfect for spinning enthusiasts.

Considered a favored fleece for spinning, Polwarth is derived from Merino and Lincoln and offers a smooth and soft handle comparable to Merino. With a longer staple length (ranging from 5 to 7 inches) and a fine 21 to 25 micron count, Polwarth is an ideal choice for both spinning and wet felting, resulting in strong, sleek, and silky yarn with defined stitches and vibrant colors when dyed. With a reputation for elasticity, durability, and excellent drape, this exceptional fiber is blended with tussah silk, providing a subtle luxurious sheen to elevate your fiber art projects.
