Stricken Scandinavian Mountain Wool Top ~ Natural Spinning Fiber / 4 oz

Discover the rich history of Scandinavian Mountain Wool - a breed that has evolved from Norway and Sweden's wild, primitive short-tailed sheep. This dual-coated wool is both soft and springy, perfect for creating bulky, luxurious yarn. Adapted to the rugged, coastal moorlands of Northern Europe, the sheep's grazing habits produce a unique and beautiful fiber. 

The wool fibers are approx. 33-36 microns and 80-120 mm long, which makes it a great wool for hand spinning and is also suitable for combing, felting and woven garments, where good resilience is required.
