Hi,

I'm looking for an on-line source of Brown Sheep Top of the Lamb sport weight singles.  It's my favorite wool to work with - I re-spin it to make it  firmer and it weaves up beautifully.   I've recently moved to WA from San Jose, CA .   I used to get my supplies down the road a bit at Custom Handweavers in Mountain View - a great shop by the way.   Any suggestions?

Bye for now,

Pat in Poulsbo, WA

I have bought top of the lamb online from Paradise Fibers in Spokane  http://www.paradisefibers.net  They are reputable with good customer service.

Then I discovered machine-spun churro which is more hard wearing and pulls apart much more easily.  I confess I never thought of respinning the brown sheep.  Can you pull it apart to get a tail, or are you forced to cut?
