Art Yarn

This listing is for a lightly dyed skein of Jacobs Wool. This wool is from a farm in Newcastle, County Wicklow. The thickness ranges from chunky to DK.
 
Sharon sources wool fibre from Sheep farms all over Ireland which she washes and dyes.  The Irish wool is chosen for its texture and appearance and dyed to be used as grasses or waves etc for felting and also for this beautiful art yarn.  Also included in this yarn is silk fibre and threads from India, Alpaca, Jacobs wool and Cheviot wool from Co. Wicklow, soya, rose, nettle and bamboo fibres. Some commercial wool may be included leftover from felting classes. 
 
The yarn is produced in small amounts and works well as an accent in knitting, crochet, weaving and felting.
