This soft and bouncy Targhee wool is grown and processed into combed top here in the US. The fiber diameter is 23 microns with a 3.25 inch staple length. Targhee wool has the softness of a fine wool, but it's straightforward to spin thanks to its long wool heritage. The finished yarn is soft, bouncy, and resilient. Targhee wool is a great fiber for beginning as well as advanced handspinners, and is an excellent choice for next-to-the-skin garments. This wool is non-superwashed and can be used for felting.
Handwash your finished yarn in cold water using a gentle wool wash like Soak or Eucalan. Hang or lay flat to dry.
