Wingham Wool

Information

The breed originates from Holland, the island of Texel

It produces a good medium length staple of white wool, around 10cm in length. A good average general purpose wool.

Micron count is in the range of 31 to 35. This gives it a good robust handle. It is favoured by spinners for good wearing knitwear.
Needle felters often use this as a core wool for solid bodies or wrapping on wire armatures. It needles well to a firm surface finish.

Wet felted items show a good robust wearing quality. Being in the 30's micron count it takes a bit longer to produce a firm felt
