Hand-dyed wool tops for spinning – approx. 100g. 

This spinning fibre is exclusively blended for me from naturally coloured native British breeds, creating a dark, moody blend with a salt-and-pepper feel. Despite its rustic appearance, the fibre is suprisingly soft with a lot of comforting crimp. I designed it to bring warmth and comfort to the depths of winter, inspired by the bare earth and lack of daylight in the English cold months.

The breeds are Black Welsh Mountain, Jacobs, Shetland, Bluefaced Leicester and Suffolk.

100% British wool

This wool top is custom blended for me at a small family-run mill in Gloucestershire. The fibres are British breeds wool from farms across the UK, in a range of beautiful sheepy colours.

The fibres I use are completely natural, with no plastic fibers or superwash process involved, so it will biodegrade naturally over time, along with anything you create from it.

Hand-dyed

My hand-dyed spinning fibre is dyed in small batches by me from my studio/home in Wiltshire, UK. While the dyes used are synthetic, for repeatability and colour-fastness, they are always non toxic.

I’m committed to sustainability, so I reuse dye water as many times as possible and make sure no dye run-off enters the water system.

Sustainable packaging

These hand-dyed wool tops are a 100% natural fibre, so all orders are shipped in biodegradable, plastic-free packaging.

Everything contained in a parcel from Marina Skua is recyclable and home-compostable, so what has come from the earth can be harmlessly returned to it.
