    Frau Woellfchen's Suffolk Combed Wool Tops are a wonderful combination of pure Suffolk and Suffolk Cross (i.e. a cross between Suffolk sheep and a different sheep breed) fibers.

    It's designed for harder-wearing accessories and garments – perfect for socks, mittens or hats. The Suffolk fibers have a lot of crimp, and contain kemp. This means the fiber can be a little stubborn while you're spinning it, but the kemp makes for an extra strong yarn.

    The Suffolk fibers are hand-dyed by Heike from Frau Woellfchen in her studio in the middle of Germany. As their undyed color is a heathered grey, the colorways she creates have a lot of depth.

    This blend is fabulous for spinners with a bit of experience and works well on wheels and spindles.  Each braid contains approx. 150g of fiber.

    If you are curious, check out our blog posts about the difference between wool tops, batts, and rolags and what to make with hand-spun yarn. And if you are new to spinning, how about how to get started with spinning?
