This is dyed Corriedale and Alpaca. I do the dyeing and then send the individual dyed fiber to the folks at Wooly Knob Fiber mill to do the blending. This is next to the skin soft and a nice bright roving of soft greens and soft mauve. The Corriedale is of course off of one of my Lovely Ladies of Sithean. Either Marika or Marigold. The Alpaca is purchased.

* NATURAL colored grey tone Corriedale roving
This is NATURAL colored Corriedale Roving from my Marcella. She is a two tone ewe with silver (not cream) and darker grey (not brown) colored wool. This year I had it blended together instead of keeping the darker tones separate. It is hard to get the natural grey tones in a picture. If you want a scanned picture of this lovely roving email me and I'll get it right off to you. This is a very nice next to the skin soft Corriedale roving.
Roving #28 $2.00 an ounce
*NATURAL colored brown and grey tones Corriedale and Alpaca roving (I'm guessing it's about 30% Alpaca and 70% Corriedale
This is NATURAL colored Corriedale and Alpaca roving. This Corriedale was my Noela and some purchased Alpaca. This is one of those wonderfully SOFT as melted butter rovings. Will make wonderful hats or scarves or that luxury sweater you've always wanted.
I guarantee you will love my rovings and yarn. If I don't want to spin it or knit with it, I don't sell it. This sometimes creates a problem since I want to use it all! I have all the cleaning and carding done at a woolen mill (Hi Matt and Jamie enough for all to enjoy these products but yet pay for my Ladies of Sithean's food and housing. Sometimes that can become a conundrum!
Email me for my guarantee and shipping costs to your area.
* This roving is NOT COMBED TOP. I do not have combed top made because I think it takes out too much of the natural characteristics of the natural animal fiber. If I want yarn that perfect I'll go buy it at a yarn shop.
When you buy roving from me you are helping support the retired Ladies of Sithean and they thank you!

Next to the skin SOFT Corriedale roving and yarn from the Ladies at Sithean!!
These Ladies come to me when they retire rather than take the one way truck. Some are only two years old when they arrive. They live out their lives here without lambing and supply me with MORE fleece/fiber than I could ever use. So to help support them and my "habit" I sell their extra wool. **Read my guarantee at the bottom of this page.
Very soft natural colored Corriedale yarn. Mill spun for me at Aunt Aggie's in Indiana. This is a SOFT nice medium to light grey two ply worsted weight yarn. Ready to be your next shawl, socks or sweater!
Yarn #1 Corriedale Yarn $2.50 an ounce
This is the natural colored Corriedale wool yarn I had factory spun at Aunt Aggie's. It is what they call a "worsted weight." The skeins are approximately 250 yards and weigh about 5 ounces a skein. Some lighter some heavier. This is a natural ivory color from one of my retired white Ladies of Sithean. I wanted to knit a sweater from the very soft wool, but didn't have the time to spin it all myself. So I decided to send in all 10 pounds of wool for spinning. Well, I don't need THAT much yarn!! LOL! So I thought I'd sell the rest.
*NOTE: This yarn is NOT perfect. As you can see by the middle skein there are areas where there are some "slubs" in the yarn. I have been knitting with it that way and it doesn't seem to matter in the pattern.
