<p><b>Corriedale Wool Roving Top</b> <br /> <br /> Corriedale is lovely and popular wool that is a wonderful all-purpose fiber loved by spinners, weavers, felters, knitters and crocheters around the world. This is premium grade spinning wool roving, fine and softer than most other corriedale wools. Cruelty-free sourced, this reliable multipurpose organic wool roving is a pleasure to spin, knit, crochet, weave or felt. <br /> <br /> Durable supercomfy wool with significant loft and distinctive crimp, corredale is the optimal wool choice for sweaters, socks, blankets and other household textiles. The Corriedale sheep is a mix of Merino and Lincoln breeds and the wool produces an excellent fiber quality for core wool felting. <br /> <br /> Much like cheviot wool, corriedale yarn for felting is a medium fiber and has a very well-defined crimp, and it makes a wonderfully bouncy DK or heavier weight yarn. While felters love it for its ability to easily needle felt & wet felt, knitters, weaver and crocheters will love it for its grippy-ness; colorwork and weaving done with Corriedale won’t slip around or become loose. <br /> <br /> <b>Key Characteristics</b></p> <ul> <li>Staple length 3-5 in (roughly 90 mm)</li> <li>Micron count 25 – 30</li> <li>Ethically sourced, Cruelty free, environmentally safe processing</li> <li>Gentle to the touch and makes a wonderfully bouncy DK or heavier weight yarn</li> <li>Preferred choice for beginner and advanced crafters alike</li> </ul> <p><br /> <b>Popular Project Uses</b></p> <ul> <li>Hand-spinning with a spinning wheel or drop spindle</li> <li>Create socks, hats, gloves, shawls, rugs, and other housewares</li> <li>Create chunky jumbo yarn arm-knit blankets and/or pet beds</li> <li>Great for weaving and tapestry art projects</li> <li>Perfect for felting projects both wet felting & needle felting</li> </ul>

SPINNING, ARM-KNITTING, WEAVING: This white chunky wool yarn top has a beautiful natural luster and we love how it spins on a spinning wheel or drop spindle.

CHUNKY, SOFT & DURABLE: This soft and bouncy wool roving has a Staple Length of 3 to 4.5 inches (roughly 90 mm) and an average width 25 to 30 microns, making it slightly more durable and coarse than finer wools. Soft, thick, & warm. Corriedale wool roving is the perfect staple wool for expert and beginner spinners alike. Find the perfect project and get going with Corriedale wool roving
COMBED & CLEANED: Washed, Carded and combed, we prep all our wool to minimize pre-felting and pre-drafting. The unspun wool fibers are gently washed before the carding, combing, packaging and inspection process, to ensure no harsh animal smell, or vegetable matter remains and your wool arrives ready for use
100% NATURAL & ECO FRIENDLY: Great wool comes from sheep that are healthy and handled with care. That’s why our wool is sourced ethically from responsible producers and countries committed to only environmentally friendly and sustainable non-mulesing production practices
