Topsy Farms carries 4 tones of natural undyed yarn, and many colour dyed variations. The yarn has been processed by a mill that uses only soap, no harsh chemical or even detergent, in their processing. That leave it soft with lanolin and sturdy with unbroken fibres (and occasional minute particles of chaff). The wool has a lovely resilience, and even more bounce when washed with Eucalan.

Our natural (undyed) white yarn is ideal for dyeing.

All skeins weigh 4 oz - 1/4 lbs or 113 grams. Yardage varies per skein, but minimum amounts are 400 yards for fingering, 200 yards for worsted and 130 yards for aran weight.

The yarn is excellent for felting. We do wash our wool knitted products by soaking in the washing machine with Eucalan, skipping agitation and skipping rinse, then spin dry. We follow that process for our Topsy Wool Blankets and throws and cotton-covered wool bedding too.

Available online at www.topsyfarms.com . We also have a full range of yarn at our at-home store on Amherst Island, The Wool Shed.
