08 - Romney X Texel Roving

OVERVIEW

On the coarser side of medium wool, this roving comes from a single Romney X Texel sheep at Deanna Garrard's farm. It has the lustrous crimp of a Romney but with a bit of a grip from the Texel influence. This may not be a great choice for anyone with a wool sensitivity, but is perfect for someone who loves a toothy wool. The fiber has a bit of natural heathering, and when spun, has a slight halo. 

Listing is per 100g. Handspun sample is not included in this listing.
