Shetland is a beautiful fibre. It has a longer staple length than Merino and the fibre in the batts remain more open and fluffy than Merino. These batts will be simply a joy to spin.
The Shetland fibres that I have put together in this blend are the finest that I can source. However, these fibres are not as soft as fibres like Merino and Rambouillet. They have a slightly crisper feel, which means that some people may find that they do not wish to wear them next to the skin.
You will recieve 7 carefully blended batts in the Painted Parakeet colourway, starting from a ruby red, moving through subtle shades of heather, through to a bright emerald green. In total the batts will make up just over 100g of fibre.
Shetland fibre will felt. If you do not wish it to, hand wash in cool water.
