🧶 What Is Carded Corriedale Wool and Why Choose Ashford?
Ashford Carded Corriedale Wool is a staple for fiber artists seeking consistency, loft, and workability. Unlike combed top, which is aligned and smooth, carded Corriedale retains more crimp and air—making it ideal for felting, texture-rich spinning, and beginner-friendly drafting. The fibers are processed into thick batts that are easy to pull apart and blend, giving you more control over your fiber prep.
Ashford’s wool comes from well-cared-for New Zealand sheep, known for producing medium-fine fleece that's soft enough for garments but strong enough for structure. Whether you're making core wool for needle felting or spinning vibrant yarn for your next weaving project, this fiber handles beautifully.
🧵 Perfect for Spinners, Felters, and Fiber Artists Alike
Ashford Carded Corriedale is especially well-suited for:
- Excellent for forming felt sheets, slippers, and sculptural pieces.
- Its loft and structure allow for clean pokes and smooth surfaces.
- Great for learning long draw or creating airy, woolen-style yarns.
- Mix it with silk, alpaca, or dyed roving for unique textures and colors.
🌈 Available in a Rainbow of Colors
From earthy naturals to bright jewel tones, Ashford's Corriedale range lets you craft exactly what you envision. Use the colors as-is or card them together for your own custom palettes.
