  • $50.00
    Unit price per 


Locally raised purebred Southdown wool from a family farm in central Iowa. This wool was slated to be dumped or burned so this is reclaimed -  I then washed this with a low-impact technique. Dyed and spun by me, lockspun to retain it's unique texture! Lofty, light, squishy wool with lots of personality - and a colorway that turned out unintentionally Mardi gras - gold, green and purple, self-striping.

Often these yarns are completely one of a kind, but occasionally I might have doubles, or may be able to custom-spin larger amounts if you need. Please convo me if you have any questions or requests. These yarns are spun in my home; I do my absolute best to keep my felines out of the fiber, but please do be aware that these yarns are created in an pet-friendly home. After they are spun, tagged, photographed and listed, they "live" in my herb shop until they are sold, so they DO smell pleasantly of herbs - most people find this pleasant but if you think this might be objectionable, you have been warned :) .
