First clipping from a purebred Icelandic lamb who was raised chemical free. Processed by a mill using eco friendly detergent. Some charcoal gray, silver gray, light gray, all naturally colored, all from one sheep. Not shown well in the picture. Beautiful color, very soft.
Icelandic sheep are dual coated animals. The long outer guard hair gives strength to the yarn, while the short down gives the softness and warmth to the yarn. Icelandic wool is great for spinning and felting. Using different spinning methods, yarns are perfect for either knitting or weaving.
