Icelandic Wool Top (1 lb)

Micron count: 34-36

Staple length: 3.5-4"

Icelandic wool is lightweight, water repellent and breathable and is great for felting or even spinning.

The guard hairs are long, a bit shiny, hard and water repellent, the woolly undercoat is fine, soft and insulating. This combination of guard hairs and wool is considered the hallmark of Icelandic wool, which is known for its excellent breathability.

The natural colours of the wool, apart from white, are also black, grey and brown.

This wool is excellent for creating very natural looking dreadlocks, as the long fibers resemble human hair. This particular wool is very versatile and can be used to create a kinky, loopy or wavy texture, as well as a smooth, straight texture!
