Description
 
The Mountain Top is Combed top in typical Roving form which is perfect for spinning. Sweet Grass Wool offers a premium Combed Top from Targhee Sheep raised in the Montana-Wyoming area. Combed Top has been through a French comb which combs the fibers, leaving them parallel. This makes a worsted spun yarn-the strongest yarn. Our combed top has been through a thorough scouring process, leaving the natural bright, white wool as clean as possible. The Wool is approximately 60ct.  This is one of our most treasured new fibers here at the shop.

My new favorite November 5, 2010
Reviewer: Samantha from IA  
What's not to love?? This dyed beautifully with a gorgeous matte appearance. Spun wonderfully (I've only been spinning a couple months now- consider myself a novice), and is so next to skin soft! My absolute favorite fiber so far! I'm ordering another pound soon!

Wonderful! August 30, 2010
Reviewer: passionate spinner from south jersey  
I loved this Targhee, it spun up beautifully and is extremely soft. Lovely, and I will be using jaquard dyes tomorrow on it. Might be my new favorite fiber.

Great Targhee for Dyers! August 30, 2010
Reviewer: Inspiration Fibers from Wales Center, NY  
I bought a large quantity of this for my dyeing business, and was very pleased. If you like targhee (very similar to merino), you'll love this creamy, soft base. It took dye wonderfully and spun up great. Just note, as with any fine wools, it wants to felt, and you must be careful when handling it and any drastic temperature changes. It will also pill. But those are general characteristics of the breed, not just of this particular product.

Beautiful dye, lovely spin, soft yarn August 26, 2010
Reviewer: Amy Knits from Spokane, WA  
This fiber is delicious. As a relatively new spinner I wanted something easy to spin with a nice staple length but also something soft and fun to to work with. The 3-4 inch staple length and soft feel of this fiber made it a dream to spin and gave it a nice finished quality. It took dye beautifully, which also enhanced the finished product. I will definitely buy more of this fiber.
