Southdown wool is a springy medium down wool, one of the finest of the English down breeds, with a micron count of about 23-29, which means many people are comfortable wearing it next to the skin.
perfect for gloves, socks, hats and sweaters, woolen/longdraw spinning or a modified longdraw can really show off this lovely roving. Great durability and perfect for needle-felting!! This wool is resistant to wet-felting, however, so I do not recommend it for wet felted projects.
