Challenging to spin |

The fiber is beautifully prepared and sooo silky, but the naturally short fiber length is challenging to spin and the top can't be predrafted.
In an article in Spin-Off, Carol Heubschner Rhodes recommended spinning from carded camel fiber, which I'll try next time.

Slightly scratchy |

I always wanted camel fleece and treated myself to this very soft top. Spinning was a bit tricky as the fiber length varied in the top. Then when I washed it, I was amazed how much dirt still came out - same amount I expect from an unwashed alpaca fleece. But the biggest dissapointment came when I started to knit it for gloves, and when trying the cuff, noticed that the fibers were scatchy. This is not something to wear next to skin, other than that it looks beautiful. But for that price I would not recommend it.

This fiber is super soft - soft as kittens, but able to be handled and braided with no trouble. Not as slippery as I was expecting (not near as slippery as alpaca), I'll really have to take my time spinning something as nice as this. Will not only buy again - putting more in my cart right now!
