Merino And Silk

Merino & Silk is a luxurious fibre blend that combines the exceptional softness of fine Merino wool with the beautiful lustre and strength of silk. The result is a wonderfully smooth combed top that drafts effortlessly and produces elegant yarns with a subtle sheen, making it a favourite for both hand spinners and feltmakers. Merino provides softness, elasticity and warmth, while silk adds strength, drape and a natural shine.

Professionally prepared into a smooth, consistent top, this blend is easy to spin and a pleasure to work with. The silk catches the light beautifully, adding depth and richness to both natural and dyed colourways, while the Merino ensures excellent handle and versatility.
