Falkland wool roving (combed top) 4 ounces. Approximately 26 microns, with a staple length between 4-6 inches, this wool feels much softer than its 26 microns would indicate. (It is similar to BFL this way.) The fiber is crimped but open, with lots of body and loft, which makes it easy to spin. Falkland will make a yarn with plenty of bounce and memory.
