Reviews
Satisfied
"Farö is perfect for my tapestry weaving. Farö is a single ply that bundles well. The Woolery updated me on backordered colors and when they would ship. Very satisfied with the Farö yarn and the Woolery's customer service."
Easy to Work With
"I use FARO wool yarn as inlay for woven transparencies. The many available colors are vibrant. It's the perfect diameter to lay between two linen foundation wefts set at 12 epi."
Tapestry yarns
"I'm so looking forward to weaving tapestries using all the great colors of Faro. The cartoons are waiting impatiently for me to begin."
FARO Wool Yarn
"Love the texture and colors. I look forward to tapestry work with this yarn."
My favorite yarn, so glad I found it
"I am new to weaving tapestries and was looking on-line for some yarn that would work. Somehow I stumbled upon The Woolery and started searching through their yarn selections. I ended up buying Faro Yarn and am so happy I did. The yarn comes in a huge skein and the weight was perfect for this novice weaver. I created my best piece so far by using the Faro yarns I bought. The colors are beautiful and bright and have a nice sheen when woven."
Sampling Faro
"Love this singles yarn, the colors and values and the flexibility of singles or weft bundling. I’m sampling 2 strands at 8 epi and a single strand at 12 epi. Both work beautifully."
Beautiful colors of tapestry yarn.
"Beautiful colors of tapestry yarn. I look forward to using it on my tapestry looms. Well worth it! Thanks!"
Love the Faro yarn. This
"Love the Faro yarn. This was my first-time purchase (based on a recommendation from The Art of Tapestry Weaving by Rebecca Mezoff) and it's great to work with (on a Mirrix for me). 4 strands for 8 epi provides excellent coverage. Colors (I chose neutrals) are rich and deep; plus good texture. Woolery always delivers fast and provides excellent service if you call needing help."
Very similar to my handspun
"Very similar to my handspun Kromski 100% Polish Merino felting wool. Using both yarns in tapestry with great results."
