Ashford Polwarth Sliver

$47.75

| /

Description

Another beautiful fibre from Ashford.  The Polwarth breed of sheep is a 75% Merino / 25% Lincoln cross which gives the fibre a soft handle, similar to Merino but with greater durability. The longer staple makes it  ideal for sweaters, socks, and garments requiring both softness and structure. The longer staple makes it easier to spin than the shorter stapled Merino, and is a great choice for new spinners.
