Clean and fluffy wool, ready for your spinning wheel!
115 g Florida Cracker Wool
Florida Cracker washed wool is for people who may not have time to scour or wash raw wool before combing or carding or spinning from the cloud.
Florida Cracker wool is known for its natural cream color and moderate amount of vegetable matter (VM), which are bits of grass, hay, or other debris that can get caught in the wool during shearing. The wool has a soft and springy texture with a moderate amount of crimp, which is the natural waviness of the wool fibers. It also has a moderate amount of luster, which gives it a subtle sheen and makes it stand out from other types of wool. The lanolin in the wool can leave your hands feeling soft and moisturized.
Overall, Florida Cracker wool has a unique texture and appearance that make it a popular choice among creators who value unique and high-quality materials with a natural look and feel.
