Soft colors in a nice roving made from the wool of Texel sheep at Border Springs Farm in Patrick Springs, Virginia. Then I took the wool to the Central Virginia Fiber Mill to be processed into this lovely, easy to spin roving. There's an article on our web site at http://www.greenberryhouse.com/texel_wool.htm about Texel sheep and the properties of the wool. This roving was dyed with acid dyes in the glowing and deep blues of a late winter's twilight with a range from light to dark. This roving would spin into a nice springy yarn that would make excellent outer wear such as mittens, hats, or even a heavy sweater! Net weight: One ounce. Made in Virginia product!
