Merino Combed Top
Exotic Fibers The fibers in this section are all prepared as combed tops. This is the finest preparation available. After fibers have been carded into roving, they are further processed by wool combing, removing any remaining vegetable matter and aligning fibers for worsted spinning. Most are very fine and lustrous. Theses tops can be more difficult to spin from the tips as a worsted. For more control, try drafting from the side of the top.
