These wool tops are gorgeously soft and very fun to spin, in a mix of bouncy Polwarth wool and colourful viscose nepps!
The wool is untreated which means it will felt - great if you want it to, but if not, make sure to treat it with a little extra care.
Fibre: 62.5% untreated Polwarth wool, 37.5% Viscose/wool blend nepps Micron: 22-23 mic (Polwarth) Staple length: 80 mm
Sold in 100 g.
(Polwarth) Care: Soak your finished yarn in cold water with a mild detergent suitable for animal fibres. Rinse it carefully. Gently press out excess water using your hands and then wrap the yarn in a towel and give it a squeeze. Dry flat. The finished yarn may bleed a bit - if it does, soak it again in cold water with a bit of white vinegar.
OEKO-TEX 100 certified.
The fibres may have been compacted on its way to you. If it feels dense, you can steam it to loosen up the fibres and make it easier to spin! Either hover a steam iron over it (don't press it with the iron!), or put it in a colander or steaming basket over a pot of boiling water. It will puff up in no time!
