23rd December 2024 - The shop is now open as normal. Sadly, due to the new European GPSR regulations, at present, I cannot send items to the EU or Northern Ireland. Any orders placed will be fully refunded. I am hoping to find a 'work around' for this issue. As soon as a way forward is found, I look forward to trading with my lovely customers in the EU again.
Dispatch times at present will be approximately 4-5 weeks
UK shipping will be sent via Royal Mail (either first class or tracked 48) and all international orders will be sent using a tracked method. Once your item is shipped I will send you an email with your tracking information. Please note - for some of the dispatch messages that I have sent from the shop email address have been delivered to spam/junk folders - so please check these folders to check for replies and tracking information.
Shetland fibre is one that is commonly used and loved by handspinners. I have taken Shetland fibres in natural shades and blended them together to form a smooth gradient moving from white to grey to moorit to black.
These soft fluffly batts are easy to unroll and section up, so that a gradient yarn can be spun up with as many plies as required. Shetland is not as soft as merino, but is still classed as reasonably fine with a micron count of between 29-31. It has however, a longer staple length at approximately 90mm, which makes it more straightforward to spin, especially for beginners.
You will receive 10 mini batts with a total weight of 150g.
