A warm, lustrous, soft combed top made with our own mohair. Hand dyed on the farm

- Weight: 50g (1.75 oz)

- A 100% Canadian product: mohair grown on our family farm and wool sourced from Alberta farms. Spun in Alberta (Exotic Fibers)
- It has little to no vegetable matter (VM)
- Care instructions: Hand wash in cold water with a wool wash of your choice . Lay flat to dry.
The fleeces of our own Angora goats were blended with fine wool (Charollais cross Dorset) for added memory to help your garments keep their shape.
It is really soft and springy to the touch! Spinners will love the way it drafts easily and of course you can use it in needle felting, fibre painting or any other crafting ideas. However, I won't recommend to use it in wet felting as I found mohair doesn't felt easily in water.
Yarns spun using this top will be silky soft with minimal halo, lustrous and will work up into wonderful garments you'll look forward to wrapping around you (such as scarves, shawls,...)
The colours are rich, vibrant and will be long lasting. Each combed top is unique due to the process of hand-dyed yarn. You might find some variations of colours between tops and batches. This makes them special, one of a kind.
A pure delight to craft with!
