Hand-Dyed Roving

Fiber from my own flock and that of other local flocks, hand-dyed in small amounts in a kettle by the shepherd.  Although most of these items are sold out, I'm leaving the photos up because they help represent my dyeing style.

03010107 Romney-type from local flock

Elektra

SOLD OUT
 15 oz Electra has gray fleece; I chose to overdye most of it in shades of blue and purple and then carded it back in with some of her undyed fleece.  This is not a soft roving; perhaps a vest? $3.50/oz blue, purple and gray roving
005011207 Coopworth/Border Leicester Corriedale lamb

4 oz One of my best projects; the wool is very soft and the colors remind me of a glacier.  There's a little more green in the fiber than is represented by this photo.  Buy this before I decide it's Mine, All Mine! $3.50/oz lambswool in glacial colors
04011207 Purebred Romney

03011207 Purebred Romney

01011207 Coopworth cross lamb

SOLD OUT
