This American grown wool sliver is a true wool grey with depth. Made by gathering small batches of dark fleece from wool pools across New England and the Mid-Atlantic U.S. and carding them together, so the color comes from the mix of sheep and carries subtle variation from strand to strand.

It is scoured and carded into a continuous sliver with plenty of loft. Carded sliver is airier and a little more rustic than combed top, with fibers that run in more than one direction, so it builds body quickly and has a fuller, woollier hand. 

The details:

  • Fiber: 100% American wool, a blend of dark fleeces
  • Source: New England and the Mid-Atlantic region of U.S.
  • Micron/Spin Count: Approximately 29.5 mic / 56s 
  • Staple: Approx. 2 to 3 inch 
  • Color: Grey
  • Bump: Sold by the pound or as multiple mini bumps totaling 20-22 pounds and discounted to $14/lb.

Good for: pulled wool saddle pads, bench pads, and rugs; for hand spinning, locker hooking, wet felting and needle felting, weaving, and rug hooking.

About the color: Because this wool is blended from many small batches, the grey varies a little from lot to lot, and it can look different from one screen to the next. If you need to match a specific shade, write to us before you order and we will help you decide whether this one is right.

How it ships: Your wool ships directly from our wool partner's mill and arrives separately from anything else in your order. Bump weight varies slightly from one to the next. Please allow 5 to 7 business days.

Making a pulled wool pad? Pair this wool with  Domestic 56s Wool Top #91, Natural Brown Merino Comeback Top, or Taupe Domestic Romney Sliver, and 3.75 mesh rug canvas. The 100% cotton is perfect for saddle pads, chair pads and rugs. Read our step-by-step saddle pad guide on the blog, and contact us with any questions.
