** THIS COLOUR IS DISCONTINUED **

The extra fine fibre (≈19 micron, 80s on the Bradford Scale) is soft to the skin and migrates easily into silk and cotton, making it ideal for nuno felting. Cool water and gentle throwing will felt the fibre; there is no need to use hot water unless rapid shrinking is required.

The fibre will be supplied in a continuous length and pulled, not cut, to prevent damage to the staple.  The tops weight averages 23g/m, the length two metres per 50g.

DHG, based in the heart of Tuscany, has a strong commitment to the environment and takes care to minimize the ecological impact of every part of their production.  This commitment includes using only merino that is certified as mulesing free, making their headquarters 100% electrically self-sufficient and processing the fibre to Oeko-Tex standards.
