Our Shetland Combed Tops are loved by hand spinners, felt makers and producers of top quality textile items made from the very finest Shetland Wool. The wool for Shetland Combed Tops is hand-selected from the best fleeces each season and is obtained from the neck and shoulder part of the fleece.
The wool is carded and then combed to separate the long fibres from the short. Combing also sets the fibres parallel to each other in preparation for spinning. Superfine Tops are made from the finest wool, and have a finer micron count (28) than our normal tops.
