HAND DYED TO PERFECTION: careful kettle dyeing in small batches allows us to create tonally complex, vivid coloring with nuances that can only be achieved by hand dyeing. We are proud to offer these variegated colors to discerning crafters who appreciate the unique qualities of hand dyed fiber. No two bags look exactly alike - if you are looking for industrially dyed solid colors this is not your fiber ;-). EASY SPINNING FIBER: we pre-drafted this super soft BFL roving to thumb thickness so that beginning spinners can concentrate on their hand movements rather than drafting. Made from the finest softest combed top available - you will quickly see why a lot of experienced spinners prefer BFL to Merino. Blue Faced Leicester is a longwool with a staple length of 3-4 inches with slight curl and fine crimp. It spins into a beautiful, lustrous yarn with great resilience. 26mic. IDEAL FOR MANY CRAFTS: from needle and wet felting to weaving, hand dyed BFL is sure to add pizazz to any fiber art project. It is particularly popular for adding a dash of color and texture to wall hangings and even super bulky knits and crochet. QUANTITY: 1 ounce / 28 grams (approx. 4.25 yards / 4 meters). Beautifully packaged for gifting to yourself or the fiber lover in your life. MANY MORE COLORS: We offer USA hand dyed BFL roving in an artist palette of 40 colors.

Superb Artistic Wool

The color is really amazing in person, bought for crafts, vines and leaves. Variation adds depth to even simple designs. It was soft and the weight was consistent. Have bought more of this color and others.

Pros
  • PERFECTLY HAND DYED: Carefully dyed in small batches allows us to create tonally complex, vibrant colors with nuances that can only be achieved by hand dyeing. We are proud to offer these diverse colors to the discerning craftsman who appreciates the unique qualities of hand-dyed fibres. No two bags are exactly alike - if you're after solid industrial colors this isn't your fiber ;-)
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Good quality, intermittent dyeing

I have ordered three packs of this wool. The quality of the wool and the colors are pleasant. I know that hand dyed yarn can't be exactly the same from one batch to the next, but the first pack I ordered had a lot more dark green in it, and the second two packs had almost none.

Pros
  • MORE COLORS: We offer hand dyed USA BFL roving in an artist's palette of 40 colors. For more color options please click on the blue LIVING DREAMS YARN link above and explore our HAND DYE section.
Cons
  • Dear

This is a Tramp PENCIL

The wool is beautiful and of good quality. However, nowhere on the packaging or in the description does it say that it is a PENCIL roving (thin threads the size of a pencil). If you don't want to use it for spinning, it needs to be combed into larger pieces. Very expensive by weight.

Pros
  • QUANTITY: 1 ounce / 28 grams (approx. 4.25 yards / 4 meters). Beautifully packaged as a gift for yourself or the fiber lover in your life.
Cons
  • Only available in black
