This listing is for a 100 gram pack of Spin Flora Natural Flax Top vegan spinning fibre. Flax or Linen is thought to be the oldest fibre used in the Western World with fabrics dating back to 10,000 BC. Flax production was centred around Europe since about 500 AD. Today more than 80% of flax is still produced in Europe.
This flax fibre is best spun with a medium twist. The yarn can be used as a single ply or plied with itself or another fibre. The single ply is also lovely when used as weft in handwoven fabrics. Flax fiber can also be used in needle felting, doll hair and paper making.
Flax fibre or yarns can be dyed with natural plant dyes and mordants or other dyes suitable for cellulose fibres.
Quantity: 100 grams
Approx. Fiber Length: 6 inches, 150-170 mm
The Spin Flora fibre is packaged in an organza mesh bag that allows the fibre to breathe and the bag can also be re-used.
