Jamieson & Smith Superfine Natural Combed Top

The natural shades of wool used in our combed tops are from the fleece of the Real Shetland sheep that roam our heather-clad hills, peat moors and seashore, making it a truly environmentally friendly product. The wool is purchased by us from Shetland's crofters and farmers, graded and sorted by us, and sent to our parent company, Curtis Wool Direct, at Haworth Scouring Bradford where it is scoured to the highest standards then combed. They are ideal for felting, and of course, hand spinning, as they are processed they can also be shipped abroad to countries that have strict fibre controls which stops us being able to ship raw fleece. The main characteristics of Shetland fleece are fibre fineness, soft handle and strength. Superfine Tops are made from the finest wool, and have a finer micron count (28) than our normal tops.
