A sumptuous fibre blend made from 80% New Zealand merino and 20% silk. The fine 22 micron merino and the lustre of the silk makes this a truly luxurious blend. Create fine, lacy and lightweight yarn for knitting or unique semi-worsted yarns for weaving. 100gm Bag Ashford wool sliver is 100% pure New Zealand wool. Our wool is grown on sheep farms in the South Island of New Zealand where the sheep graze on large grassy paddocks and are free from mulesing. We only use wool with good length that is free from breaks, has high bulk, brightness, low vegetable matter and is the correct micron. The wool is washed using a standard aqueous treatment with eco-friendly biodegradable detergent. Then in our very own woollen mill in Milton, our staff ensure every process is to the highest standard. West 7th Wool is an Ashford dealer and, as such, we are more than happy to order anything from Ashford that you might need, regardless of whether we normally carry that particular item in our shop. And if you don't live in the DFW area (or even if you do), that's okay! Ashford can drop ship directly to your door for an additional $10 fee.
