Woodland White Carded Sliver

100% rare breed Whitefaced Woodland wool

100% traceable - from the flock at Temple Newsam Farm, Leeds.

One of the largest rare breed centres in Europe, working to preserve some of the oldest breeds of farm animals in the country.

Perfect for spinning, great for felting, and for peg loom / chunky weaving. Also takes dyes well.

Carded at Halifax Spinning Mill, a small Yorkshire mill working tirelessly to ensure that processing small batches of breed-specific British wool can be viable.

The Peg Loomer is part of the Northern England Fibreshed - a group committed to utilising and promoting the use of fibres grown and processed within the North. This wool has not yet left the North of England. Local and sustainable!

Buying British wool is a highly sustainable choice, with a vastly reduced carbon footprint - no shipping from the other side of the world! Choosing wool over synthetic fibres means no micro-plastics released into our environment. It also supports our local farmers to preserve rare, native breeds.
