This amazing roving is a combination of our lovely ewe, Arwen, with two other Icelandic fleeces that were given to me. Their tog and thel (outer and inner coats) are combined into a lovely light gray, and the resulting roving is incredibly soft and a true pleasure to spin - also perfect for dyeing, needle-felting...anything!
If you haven't spun Icelandic before, please check out my video on spinning Black Velvet and please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!
For more information about Arwen, please visit her Gallery!
Please remember that you are buying farm-fresh roving! My fleeces are processed by an amazing small-batch mill that spends a great deal of time skirting and picking the fleeces - however, it is impossible for them to remove all of the VM (vegetable matter). The roving is amazingly soft and clean, and the VM comes out easily. Thank you for understanding that what you are seeing is evidence of the good food our sheep enjoy!
Hand wash very gently in cold water - do not agitate Icelandic wool. Lay flat to dry.
