Falkland top for spinning -Turmeric - 5 oz. wensleydale silk but in "braid" form -26 Micron, staple length 4 6 inches, 100 115 mm. The base flock of the Falkland wool is Corridale, Polwarth and Dohne Merino. These breeds were developed for dual purpose, meat and wool production and are selectively bred for the ability to survive in the harsh climate of the Falkland Islands. The upside of the harsh climate is that insects and disease associated with them are not a problem. The wool is almost guaranteed to be chemical free. Since
