Description
White English Leicester Locks
A beautiful high luster wool with a well defined crimp ideal for medium to thick yarns.
Ideas for Use:
- Separate into individual groups of color.
- Spinning - Open the fibre out and spin a soft single thread. Ply with a fine cotton, silk or commercial wool thread to strengthen the yarn for knitting. The fine thread will be almost hidden in the yarn and won't obscure the fabulous colors.
- Weaving - Use the beautiful shiny staples for extra texture in handwoven fabrics. Hand knot the staples into beautiful rugs or wall hangings.
- Felting - Use the colored staples as surface decoration. They look fantastic lightly felted into the surface of a natural color felt.
