This 3-ply, 100% Cormo wool is sourced from Cormo sheep on Geis Ranch in Campbell County, Wyoming and spun in Nazareth, PA. Cormo wool is springy, strong with great elasticity and next to skin soft. Excellent for garments. The wool featured in this yarn is 21 microns with a 4-inch staple length.
A little bit about amazing Cormo fiber from Sincere Sheep:
The Cormo breed was developed in 1960 in Trangie, New South Wales, Australia by crossing superfine Saxon Merinos with Corriedales in an effort to increase the fertility, frame size, and fleece yield while still maintaining a fine micron count fleece. The first Cormo sheep were imported to the US in 1976. It continues to be very popular breed among handspinners for its fine bright white wool and relatively long staple length.
