Plague Bear on Hand Dyed Falkland Wool Combed Top - 4 oz

Whomever gets sick in our household gets identified as the Plague Bear - a bit of humor to get through not fun times. Our Plague Bear is a mix of all those lovely neutrals of a grizzly bear - chestnut and almond and charcoal and a touch of pewter. Falkland wool is a landrace - a wool originating from the Falkland Islands - typically a mix of Corriedale and Merino. A favorite multi-purpose wool that is suitable for beginners as well as experienced spinners. 3-5 inch staple length with bouncy crimp. Hand dyed using professional acid dyes that are hypoallergenic and meet either Oeko-Tex 100 or organic processing standards. Sold in 4 ounce quantities. Care: Handwash with tepid water and a wool wash (we recommend Unicorn Fibre Wash). Lay flat to dry. This fiber will felt! Because of the dye method, individual braids within a dyelot are fraternal and there will be variation between braids. Different dyelots will be more like cousins. Dyelot: 001 Ships in 1-3 business days. Free domestic shipping for all orders of $50 or more.
