Premium Grade Undyed Cheviot Wool Roving Top
Cheviot is lovely and popular wool that is a wonderful all-purpose fiber loved by spinners, weavers, felters, knitters and crocheters around the world. This is premium grade, fine and softer than most other cheviot wools. Cruelty-free sourced, this reliable multipurpose wool is a pleasure to spin, knit, crochet, weave or felt.
Famous for it's crispness & durability with significant loft and distinctive crimp, cheviot wool is the optimal wool choice for sweaters, socks, blankets and other household textiles. This roving wool produces an excellent fiber quality for quick felting.
Much like corriedale wool, cheviot roving is a medium fiber with a width of around 26-33 microns, and with a relatively good staple length of between 4-5 inches. It has a very well-defined crimp, and it makes a wonderfully bouncy DK or heavier weight yarn. While felters love it for its ability to easily needle felt & wet felt, knitters, weaver and crocheters will love it for its grippy-ness; colorwork and weaving done with Cheviot won’t slip around or become loose.
