Cormo Combed Top. This is our softest product from our softest sheep – Benny who is a Cormo sheep. He is such a sweet guy, and it shows in his fleece. It is a lovely chocolate color with hints of his white spots. You will love spinning with this combed top.
How about some hand-carded batts?
These batts start out as raw fleece and are transformed into a preparation that is a real pleasure to spin.
Want wool to spin from the lock?
These nice, clean locks are ready and begging to be spun one by one.
Want to go further down the rabbit hole and try fiber prep? Or you’ve been there and are looking for fibers to combine with others in your stash?
There will be easy-to-prep fibers like Montadale and Corriedale available, or more challenging fibers like fine Cormo or Polwarth! Both dyed and undyed (but all washed!) fibers will be on-hand.

So smooth and shiny! Blends great with your fibers for added strength and shine. This comes as a combed top preparation, so it is very clean, but still retains its delightful wave. These fibers have been hand-dyed in a rainbow of vibrant colors. Try spinning it fine and using it to ply with an art yarn. Available in 2 ounce braids.
More than just one fiber for a fun and funky yarn. Built on a base of wool, these hand-carded batts may contain any number of fibers including mohair, silk, cashmere, alpaca, cotton, llama, or sparkle. Some fibers are dyed and others are left natural. Spin it thick or thin. Use them for core-spinning. Split it long-ways to create a sliver or roll it and pull into roving. You can’t do it wrong. One batt is $5, but mix and match five for $20. Create your own unique color combination.
A clean preparation perfect for creating strong, smooth yarns. This is available in many different wool breeds including organic Polwarth, US-grown Targhee, white and fawn Shetland, and Blue-faced Leicester. Each 4-ounce braid has been hand-dyed individually.
Sheared from the sheep, washed, and dyed. You can’t get much closer to the animal than these locks. Fluff them by hand for a fun textured yarn, card them into batts or rolags, or just add a few here and there as you spin. Breeds vary, but each fleece is grown by a sheep in the US, many from Ohio and Virginia.
A light, textured prep that emphasizes the unique attributes of the breed. These fibers are available in limited quantities, as they come from small farms and are processed in small batches. Great for novices or those who are looking for an airy yarn.
