United StatesOh, my goodness! True fingering weight yarn has become so difficult to find at an affordable price these days that I decided to make my own. I'm spinning singles at slightly finer than 40 wpi from this UTTERLY DELICIOUS fiber blend. The combination of merino and bamboo makes it smooth and silky, and gives it a wonderful lustre. Spun off the fold, it simply flows from my finger. My end product will be double-ply. I will definitely be purchasing more (although I do wish they'd produce a largely green colourway). Would I recommend this product? You bet!
Soft and Sweet! These silky and lofty blends are inspired by childhood nursery rhymes and feature tonal and contrasting shades of dyed merino wool top blended with lustrous dyed shades of bamboo top. These soothing blends have all the wonderful temperature regulating properties of merino wool with strands of luminous bamboo for strength and luster, perfect for hand spinning cozy garments that are sure to last a lifetime of wear.
These enchanted rovings will breathe life into any spinning, felting, or blending project. Since the blend consists mainly of wool it will needle/wet felt with ease. With a long staple length of 3-6 inches, the vibrant multi-colors create a gorgeous heathered yarn when spun fine.
