Falkland White is a bright and versatile combed top wool from the famed Falkland Islands. Known for its excellent quality, this fibre is celebrated for its softness and stunning natural whiteness.
Features
Fibre Diameter: Ranges from ~18–33 microns, with most between 27–30 μ — soft yet with structure
Staple Length: Approximately 80–100 mm (3–4 in), ideal for smooth drafting and lofty spinning
Texture: Crisp and lightly crimped with pleasant bounce, creating airy but stable yarn
Colour: Exceptionally bright white—the result of sheep raised in clean, chemical-free environments
Ideal For: Spinning next-to-skin garments, felting delicate or structural pieces, natural-dyed accessories, and versatile blending
Falkland wool spins into soft, breathable yarn with great loft and bounce, yet resists felting when drafted as worsted. Its luminous white base is perfect for vibrant dyeing or crisp natural projects. The blend of breeds delivers natural variability, so batch consistency is suggested for larger projects
Perfect for spinners, felters, weavers, and dyers seeking a pure-white, medium wool with structure and softness—whether for cozy sweaters, ethereal shawls, or fine felting and weaving work.
