Forest Glen - hand spinning wool blend, carded wool to spin, felting wool
Forest Glen is a deep, forest green blend of fibers carded together with warm brown tones, cool blue flashes and bright purple/gold highlights. This blend works well for the hand spinner and the felter creating a colorful yarn or felt vessel.
Biotayarns blends vibrantly dyed fibers designed especially for creativity in spinning and felting projects. 100% made in the USA from homegrown, hand washed, dyed, blended and fully carded Border Leicester and Polypay wool and fine grade Alpaca. This blend has a little firestar added for extra sparkle and a little silk noil for texture.
You will receive a 4 ounce bag of carded cloud, a preparation that is ready to spin or felt. I must emphasize that this carded cloud {batt} is very easy to spin and flows like butter from your hands to the bobbin. The long staple of the fibers makes spinning this blend a very good choice for the beginning hand spinner. Likewise this carded preparation is ready to lay out for felting.
The animals whose fibers are in this blend are raised by shepherd's dedicated to the fiber arts and to their fiber animals. At Dakota Carding & Wool we pasture raise our sheep and maintain a non-medicated, healthy environment for our four-legged friends!
All of the fibers have been gently sheared, washed, dyed and carded using ecologically safe soaps and dyes.
Please remember that colors may appear different on your monitor than in real life. Every effort has been made to convey the colors in my photos as the fiber blend appears to me in person. Photos are taken in natural daylight without any color effects. I card many pounds of this fiber blend colorway some variation between batches will exist, similar to dye lots in yarn.
This fluffy, carded fiber is ready to ship. Please feel free to contact me with questions or custom orders.
Thank you for looking,
