Relatively soft, warm and very strong fibre blend with a beautiful sheen and drape. Ramie and bamboo fibres are both plant-based fibres that are strong, soft, have a natural white colour and beautiful shine and drape. They don't take the dyes that I use, so they stay white, which gives a beautiful effect to this blend. Fibre from llama's also have a beautiful sheen and drape! It may not be he softest fibre type out there, but it compensates with it's warmth! Whitefaced woodland sheep give a lovely rustic wool. This blend would make a fun and interesting spin and lends itself beautiful for shawls.
A little tip for spinning: all these fibres have a bit longer of a staple length, so keep your hands a bit wider apart when drafting.
