Services
- Skirting
For economic reasons, you will probably want to do your own
skirting. Skirting is taking material
off of your fleeces that you don't want processed.
Remove all manure tags, areas with lots of vegetable matter,
matted wool, and all foreign objects. For your convenience,
we offer a skirting service.
- Scouring
We use a biodegradable wool scouring product and very hot water
(180 degrees) for all of our scouring.
- Picking
This is the process of fluffing up the wool to prepare it for
carding.
- Carding
Fibers are run through our McDermott carding machine to align
the fibers in preparation for your hand spinning.
Carded wool can be made into rovings or batting as you choose.
- Blending
We can blend your exotic fibers with your wool.
