Shetland Wool Roving, Homegrown Natural Colors 4 oz.

Colorado-grown Shetland roving in 4 oz hanks, from our flock of heritage Shetland sheep. While there is a huge range in Shetland fleeces, from coarse to fine, we have been breeding Shetlands for 15 years toward softer fleeces with a good handle and staple length - perfect for spinning, Fair Isle knitting, and felting. Their natural rainbow of colors creates a palette of choices for your next fiber project.

We sustainably produce this wool on our three-generation family farm, using rotational grazing, organically produced hay, solar power, non-lethal predator control, and organic methods. We are participating providers with the Shave 'em to Save 'em program from the Livestock Conservancy.
