My naturally raised purebred Icelandic lamb's first clipping. Processed by a mill using a earth friendly detergent. Very soft and long staple. Soft enough for next to skin projects, but also suitable for sock yarn due to double coated fiber of Icelandic sheep. Deep chocolate brown. 12.05 ounces.
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.
