JaggerSpun Heather Yarn , 2/8 Fingering Weight
The Heather line by JaggerSpun is a top-dyed worsted spun wool yarn. The beautiful heather effect is created by blending together many different shades to achieve each unique yarn color. Similar to the Jamieson & Smith Shetland Jumper Weight yarn.
JaggerSpun's Heather yarns will loft and become softer after washing. Tip: as with all natural wool yarns, try using a little hair conditioner instead of fabric softener when washing and see for yourself!
This yarn line can be used successfuly in felting projects.
