60 g hand pulled roving. 100% Jacob sheep wool from Northern Ontario.

Jacob fleece was divided into its black and white portions, hand washed & hand combed, then drum carded. Grey roving was made from the areas where the black and white parts of the fleece interfaced. Shades of grey vary, some are quite light and some are quite dark. Roving was hand dizzed from the drum carder. There are some variations in width in the roving.

Jacob has amazing spring. Makes beautiful and stretchy mittens and socks.
