These fibres are imported directly from small farms in New Zealand where the animals have been selectively bred to produce wool specifically suited for handcraft and fibreart. The fleeces are carded or combed in small mills on the farms with personal care in blending.
Be sure to order enough for your projects, as these are dyed and blended in small lots.
