Our raw Wensleydale wool is a truly special fiber, prized for its long, lustrous locks and natural strength, and considered one of the finest hand-spinning wools in the world. Shorn from our Wensleydale sheep and sold in its natural, unprocessed state, this wool showcases the breed’s signature sheen, soft handle, and beautiful crimp.
Highly versatile, raw Wensleydale wool is ideal for hand spinners, felters, fiber artists, and craftspeople who enjoy working directly from fleece. Its long staple length makes it a joy to spin into smooth, strong yarns, while its natural curl and texture lend themselves beautifully to wet felting, needle felting, doll hair, art yarns, and decorative textile work.
Benefits & Uses:
Long, lustrous fibers with a natural sheen
Excellent for hand spinning, tail spinning, felting, and fiber art
Ideal for art yarns, locks, doll hair, and textured projects
Strong yet soft fiber with good durability
Each batch is unique, reflecting the natural character of the fleece and the sheep it came from—perfect for makers who value authenticity, sustainability, and working close to the source.
