Polwarth
Polwarth wool top
Polwarth is a Merino and Lincoln cross, and it takes the best of both: merino softness with a longer staple that makes it far easier to draft. Spinners who find merino a bit sticky and short often fall for Polwarth instead. It's soft enough for next-to-skin knits, with a springy loft that holds up well in wear.
Our Polwarth combed top is undyed in ecru, so it's ready to spin as it is or to use as a clean, luminous base for dyeing.
Wondering how it compares with our merino? Ask us and we'll describe the difference in the draft.
