Description

At Wild Woolly we love to blend our wools to get custom made wools for projects.  Our custom made dogs can be a blend of up to 4 different colour wools.  An Ashford’s drum carder prepares your fibres effortlessly for felting and other projects. Your art yarn starts here. You can card differing fibres and fabric, ribbon, feathers, paper etc. Have fun creating and mixing your own blends and colours.
