I got some wool roving to use for wet felting (Nuno felting) on silk chiffon scarves and it worked beautifully. It also dyed beautifully! It was a great deal too.

This was the first roving I've ever purchased knowing nothing about the product. I only bought it because it was the least expensive. However it spins very well. I was able to divide it up into eighths. I'd say that the fibers are about six inches long which made drafting quite simple with very few breaks. Only downside is that it can have a slight wet dog smell when wet but who cares? So what! Very lovely roving.

Lovely fiber. Would have liked to have known from what type of sheep this was from. I think it is merino but not sure would have liked to have known if it was top or not what grade of wool and the fiber length. These are just suggestions that you might want to add to the page. Other than those little things this is lovely fiber that takes dye very well.
