FLEECE, FIBRE & YARN

I'm so happy - finally launched out Fleece & Fibre page and the online shop links so you can buy our wonderful yarn, batts, fleeces and other makings including kits, online.

Also our new range of TASMAGIC BATTS.  These are my own blend of our stupendous Tasmanian Superfine Wool tops (Tasmanian Merino 18.5 micron) with all sorts of lovely stuffs to make your handspun, felt, needle felt and embellishing uniquely gorgeous.  Check out the new page and also the shop.

I'm particularly pleased with the Wild Fibre blends - 60% Tassie Superfine and 40% Wild Fibre.  We are using Tasmanian Possum and 2 varieties of Wallaby.  The wild fibre is saved from processing which would normally see it wasted.  The animal harvest is sustainable and humanely managed with oversight by Government Agencies and licencing systems...check out our TasMagic Wild Batt in our shop.
