60% Polwarth Wool 20% Yak 20% Mulberry Silk Combed Top Spinning Fiber

This spinning fiber blend of Polwarth, Yak, and Mulberry Silk, boasts a delicate and luxurious softness, making it an excellent choice for hand spinning and dyeing. Its adaptability to various dyes allows for vibrant and unique results.

Polwarth, a favored fleece for spinning, is known for its smooth and soft handle, comparable to Merino wool. The breed, created from a mix of Merino and Lincoln sheep, has a longer staple length ranging from 4 to 6 inches and a fine 22 to 25 micron count. Polwarth is highly suitable for both spinning and wet felting, producing a strong, sleek, and silky yarn with well-defined stitches and striking colors when dyed. Its shine and clarity enhance the colors of your knitting, and can even create a lustrous woven fabric.

With a reputation for elasticity, durability, and excellent drape, this exceptional fiber is blended with yak and a touch of mulberry silk, providing a subtle luxurious sheen to elevate your fiber arts, knitting, crocheting, or weaving projects.
