Core Wool, Pure Corriedale Cross

This wool roving is excellent. It’s soft, has no odors and is white. It arrived in a timely manner and was perfect for my project.

This came on time. The wool is beautiful. It is clean and soft. Very easy to work with. I will be buying more.

I'm very pleased with the amount for the reasonable price. It's extremely smooth, and so even. I'm really surprised that they call this "core wool" though--to me it's far too silky smooth and sleek to be considered that! It felts up nicely though; I knotted a length a few times and felted using a 2-needle holder (using size 38s, for reference), and it didn't take long at all to get a nice roundness, and I was very pleased with the density I achieved in what I'd characterize as a normal amount of time. For being so soft, it has a reeeally good "tooth," which I guess is a hallmark of Corriedale? I'm a fan now! So, just be aware that this is a lot nicer than "just" carded core wool--I feel it's nice enough to use as the outside too. Also, it arrived the next day, which is ~amazing~!!

Good product and easy to work with.

Corriedale is a nice enough wool not super soft but not scratchy either. I've purchased this box twice when I was in need of wool quickly. Price is okay, you can get cheaper from other websites but you won't get theirs in 2 days. Staple length is good and it spins up well. Felts really well to so be careful when dyeing. I have found when spinning it does not need a lot of pre-drafting. Little to no smell, so if you like the sheepy stink this isn't it, smells very clean but not chemical. Color is slightly off white and the wool itself has very little to no VM. Over all good wool.

I decided to teach myself a new skill (needle felting). I purchased this wool roving to use as a base for my projects, to build my shapes and then add color to it afterwards. It has been absolutely perfect for my needs! In is very soft and already nice and clean. There is surprisingly much more in the box than would be expected. I’ve barely made a dent in it so far! It’s so affordable! This is a 10 out of 10 I would recommend! Attached are photos of my first 3 projects using this wool roving to form the shapes and to blend some of the colors. This is perfect for if you are looking to try your hand at needle felting but don’t want to break the bank!

I bought this because I wanted to a lot of wool for cheap to get back into wool spinning. This was the largest amount at the cheapest price so I was sold. I wasn't sure what to expect but I was overall pretty pleased with the purchase. For some reason (and this was on me) the wool comes in the box shown in the picture, I had thought it came in a plastic jar. It's packed in which is nice that they squeezed 8 ounces into such a small box. I'd recommend a different container for storage as the box is not really secure. The wool itself is surprisingly soft and really easy to spin. The only drawback was there was some debris in the wool but they pretty rare occurrences, minimal and easily removable. Drafting was pretty smooth and I could get to lace weight yarn without too much trouble. This is a solid choice for those interested in learning how to spin wool. No frills, not fancy by any stretch but you get your money's worth.
