From the first prized Merinos gradually exported around the world to newer breeds such as CVM, fine wool is surprisingly versatile. Beyond the ubiquitous (but delightful) Merino top are fine fleeces to select, wash, and process for delightful yarn.
In “Spinning Fine Wool” you won’t find one single method for spinning or washing wool, but rather a collection of results from experienced spinners who have found success using several different methods.
