Romney wool is a stronger type wool that is ideal for making items that require a bit of strength and body ie. jerseys/vests, gloves, slippers and blankets etc. It softens over time with washing and gains a beautiful loftiness and bounce.  This wool is economical to learn with or make items that require a large quantity of wool. Please note It is not advised for use for garments that are to be worn directly against the body.
