Polish Merino Wool Top - Black (Natural)
A deep, natural black combed top with the quiet variation real wool gives. It isn't a flat dyed black but a rich, slightly heathered dark that reads beautifully on its own or as a shading fiber. Spinners reach for it to add depth to blends, ply against lighter singles for contrast, or spin a dramatic solid that needs no dyeing at all.
It's the same well-prepared Polish Merino as our other natural shades: a dual-purpose Polish breed combed into smooth top that drafts evenly and felts reliably. At 27 micron it's in the company of Blue Faced Leicester and Corriedale, durable and lofty, ideal for outerwear, bags, and felted work rather than next-to-skin pieces.
