Natural un-dyed wool

Our natural wool fibre is mainly Australian merino and available in 16 to 19 microns. To add some softness and sheen to your felting, we also have a luxurious blend of  Tussah silk and merino roving. Other un-dyed products include Bergschaf wool batts in their naturally occurring colours of white, grey and brown. At around  30 microns, Bergschaf suits heavier felting projects. Natural or ecru ‘cheeses’ of wool pre-yarn, waste and pencil roving are great to use for interesting effects.

These raw fibres have not been through any lightening or colouring process and are slightly off white rather that pure white. As a result, they are also softer and easier to work with. Because is is a protein fibre,  wool will readily take up acid  dyes. The dyeing process can be done after felting or spinning.
