Description

2 x 50g (2 x 1.75oz)

85% 21 micron Merino wool

15% Tussah silk

Made by me on my manual 'Classic Carder' drum carder.

'Midnight Garden' is a gradient of vibrant lilac, royal blue, midnight blue, teal, forest green, and golden brown 21-micron Merino wool and is thoroughly mixed with navy, vibrant purple, olive green, and golden brown tussah silk. Carded three times for a super smooth gradient and mix. This batt is soft and lofty and should be ideal for spinning your favourite type of yarn.

Suitable for felting too - Take care with using hot water as colours may bleed.

You will receive 2 x 50g (2 x 1.75oz) batts.

All my Merino is sourced from non-mulesed flocks.

Batts are packaged in a sealed, white slightly translucent glassine paper bag - these are recyclable and compostable (put them out with your paper recycling)

Please be aware that colours can vary between monitors. I've photographed these batts to show the colours and details as accurately as I can. Expect slight variations between batts.

Previously, my batts were made on a motorised drum carder and weighed 100g (3.5oz) each. I'm now using a manual drum carder, which produces 50g (1.75oz) batts. When you purchase, you'll receive a set of two 50g batts, still totaling 100g (3.5oz)

Please note: Some photos show my batts made on my previous motorised drum carder, which were larger in size. I've now switched back to my manual carder, and the current batts are shown in the updated photo. The same colours and fibres are used, they've just a different size.
