Beautiful next to the skin, lovely and soft. Ideally suited to spinning into yarn for garments that need regular washing.
Beautiful creamy white, non mulesed, sustainable and grown right here in Tasmania this superfine 18.5 micron wool feels soo soft and squishy. TEC or Total Easy Care (Superwash) wool has been treated to stop it felting. The treatment modifies the natural characteristics of the wool by rounding or removing the scales on the wool. This makes the fibre smother, more even and decreases the shrinkage and felting during the washing process.
