Soft, warm, and brilliant shades of peach and gold break over a gentle blue ocean. This colorway, inspired by some of Em's photography this summer from our childhood favorite beach, makes me think of fresh air, gentle breezes, and the soft sand beneath my feet.

Combed top, sometimes referred to as wool roving, is a commercially prepared fiber for spinning yarn and other wool crafts such as felting. Ours is carefully selected, hand-painted, and packed with care for you to spark your own creativity. This listing is for one 4oz braid of top.
Falkland wool refers not to any specific breed, but instead to the fine, exceptionally bright white wool produced from the networked wool pool of the Falkland Islands. It can contain fibers from sheep and crosses such as Polwarth, Merino, Romney, and Corriedale. While this can create some variation in Falkland wool from various sources, it comes with the island's tightly managed sheep flocks' health, which results in fleece that is naturally disease and pest resistant. Our Falkland is comfortable next to the skin, and suitable for snuggly garments.
