Customer Reviews
I have used three of the Merino Sliver 500 grams in the Turquoise, Toffee, Natural Grey and the Sorbet which has silk also.
I find the fibre to be the highest grade I have ever spun and particularly love the Natural Grey it’s just so light and magnificent to spin.
I have finished two Ashford Boomerang Shawl patterns, in the Merino colour wools and so pleased with the outcome. I am now spinning and knitting the large triangular shawl from the first Ashford book released. I have been spinning over 50 years from when one could only start with a filthy dirt and thorn riddled fleece and spend a week preparing the laborious process finally carding to now after a 20 year break being able to buy exquisite colour options of such high quality. Well done Ashfords………Rosey
Great quality, great service.
This merino wool is perfect to spin with. It’s very smooth and soft and very pliable. The colour is very subtle, just what l wanted
