70S 19–20 Microns Fine Wool Top

This 70S fine wool top is a carefully prepared combed sliver featuring long, smooth fibers (approximately 2.8–3.1 inches) and a refined micron range around 19–20 microns. The result is a fiber base that feels soft, clean, and quietly luxurious — well suited to fine spinning and considered fiber work.

Handspinning Suitability

This wool top can be handspun, and performs best in worsted-style spinning:

• Best for: spinners with some experience who enjoy working with fine, smooth fibers

• Recommended yarn weights: lace to fingering

• Preferred technique: short draw, controlled drafting

Not Ideal For

• Absolute beginners to handspinning

• Woolen-style spinning that relies on airier, shorter fibers

Because of its fine diameter and smooth preparation, this fiber benefits from steady tension and a calm drafting rhythm.

Fiber Characteristics

• Fine micron count for a soft, next-to-skin feel

• Long fibers for improved strength and reduced breakage

• Low short-fiber content, helping minimize shedding and pilling

• Typical moisture regain of 13–18%, supporting breathability and comfort

This wool top is also suitable for blending with mohair, silk, or other luxury fibers, adding structure while maintaining lightness.

Important Notes

• Supplied as combed wool top (sliver)

• Packaged simply, includes a label

• Fiber may be supplied in multiple lengths rather than a single continuous piece; continuity is not guaranteed

Curated for those who value material honesty, quiet structure, and intentional making.
Knitting — and spinning — with quiet luxury.
