Sharon Trower has finished an interesting jersey. Sharon purchased one of our naturally coloured silky Ginger Corriedale fleeces - washed and hand carded the staples. Sharon remove some of the lighter tips and this has produced a very consistent colour. The garment is finished with African violet silk blend accents.

We are now spinning the ''Oatmeal'' single for our 4ply yarn. This fine yarn is R80 Tex ( 80 grams per kilometer ) it is beautifully smooth, even and silky. These fine yarns can only be spun from Wool sliver thats been Fully Worsted processed thru Gilling and Combing.

13/04/2026

We have now Gilled all the Oatmeal Corriedale wool and are Combing for the next few days. Combing is slow work with production of about 10kgs per hour. Fully Worsted Combed Fibre is the highest grade of fibre that a crafts person can use - its been carded, its been gilled, its been combed and will be gilled some more before we spin to yarn.
These Combed Fibres are vastly superior to plain carded wool. Combed wool has the fibres straightened and all noil and vegetation has been removed. More info about the process on the individual pics.
