Indie Dyed Merino Tops

$20.00

Indie dyed roving for weaving, spinning up, felting, knitting or crochet. Australian Merino. Gently kettle dyed over an entire day to produce one single cake. Weight is approximately 104 grams. 22 micron count.

This roving is unique in colour and design. The colour takes inspiration from spring pastures in dairy country on a cloudless day.

Photographed on both sides so you can see the roving. I have taken a photograph with my hand in it so you can gauge the amount you receive in this listing. All my rovings are one of a kind creations.

CREATIVE IDEAS:
Split up the roving lengthways into thinner strips and spin these up. Match each stripped length or turn each one around to vary the colourway. Cake up the finished spun hank and spin from the outside and center of the ball at the same time to create a 104 gram hank of two ply wool. Consider plying the finished spun roving with another colour or fibre altogether to increase the thickness and weight of this roving. Use as is or thin down the length for weaving projects. Excellent for incorporating into felting work. A versatile product. I tend to use my hand dyed roving in felting projects.

MAKING TIME:
Each roving you see here takes two days to make from start to finish.
