4 oz. • Pumpkin Spice roving: on Romney & Romney Hogget from Iron Water Ranch

A gorgeous autumn colorway compromised of 7 different colors I dyed on fleece from a Romney named Gidget, and a Romney Hogget named Fury. Hogget is the name of the first shearing of a sheep older than 3 months, and is the best wool that animal will ever give. It still has the unsheared lamb's wool, yet it is longer. Hand spinners prize such wool. Both fleece come from some of my favorite wool growers, the shepherds at Iron Water Ranch about 3 hours north of me. Gidget's fleece has been dubbed "the perfect Romney." This blend is shiny and soft and the colors make a perfect fall heathered yarn…a blend of cocoa, cranberry, coffee, toffee and gold.

🐑 Sourced locally, scoured, dyed, and milled in-house by me with much love.
