Corriedale Wool
Micron 27-30, staple length approximately 11cm, corriedale wool. Sheared, combed and carded in New Zealand and dyed in a large range of plain colours. Excellent value for needle felting, feltmaking, spinning etc.
The Corriedale sheep is found on sheep farms all over New Zealand. Its wool has a clear even crimp and is smooth and easy to spin or felt. The sheep are well cared for and are not mulesed. Spin a fine to medium woollen, worsted or semi-worsted yarn. Corriedale will bulk after washing and has good elasticity. It is ideal for baby wear, woven, knitted or crocheted garments. Fabulous for the needlefelter because it has a great texture.
