Scoured Tasmanian Merino Wool 450g
$21.60
100% Pure Australian Fleece · Natural & Ready to Use · Spinning, Felting, Dyeing & Blending
Sourced from the clean, cool pastures of Tasmania, this scoured Merino wool was grown by the Youl family on their “Elsdon” property, near Perth in the northern midlands of Tasmania. This beautiful fibre is the purest starting point for any fibre project. Carefully washed to remove all grease and dirt from the wool, it arrives clean, open and ready to use — with the natural softness and lustre of fine Merino fully intact.
Tasmania's unique cool climate and pristine environment produces some of Australia's most sought-after Merino fleece — renowned for its exceptional fineness, bright white colour and long, consistent staple. This is the fibre that serious crafters reach for first.
Whether you're spinning fine yarns, felting sculptural pieces, blending custom batts or dyeing vibrant colourways from scratch — scoured Tasmanian Merino takes to every technique beautifully, and dyes to a brilliant, even finish thanks to its naturally bright base.
