Cormo: Cormo is an Australian breed of sheep developed in Tasmania by crossing Corriedale rams with superfine Saxon Merino ewes in the early 1960s. The name Cormo is derived from the names of two of the parent breeds, Corriedale and Merino. The result of this brilliant combination is a fine, wonderfully soft wool. It has a well-defined regular crimp that gives it a feel of being “fluffy.” The fiber has excellent elasticity while still being superfine. It easily drafts and creates smooth, even yarns, resulting in beautifully crafted handspun creations.

Alpaca: Natural Brown Huacaya Alpaca. A warm, soft luxury fiber with a natural crimp and soft lustre.

Jacob: Jacob wool is the classic hand spinners wool, sought-after fiber for spinners seeking a durable but soft wool with a good staple length. Easy to spin, with a fair amount of loft and spring to it, and has just enough luster to give the finished yarn a beautifully subtle sheen.

Welsh: Pure Black! Our Black Welsh Top is one of the darkest natural breeds available. Welsh Mountain sheep, considered a primitive breed with their fiber at 31–35 microns, is quite hairy and so well suited to their environment. Worth a spin just to try out this amazing hardy animal's fleece.

Corriedale Superwash: Superwash Dyed Corriedale Top. The Corriedale fleece is a superior spinning wool with good crimp and soft handle and is very even. The wool produced is approximately 25–30 microns, with a staple length of 80–120 mm. Our Corriedale wool originates from New Zealand.
