BWM x Polwarth - 100g British Small Flock Sliver
This is the kind of fibre that carries a story in every strand. Sourced from a small British flock, this beautiful sliver has been prepared from a single carefully selected fleece, chosen for its exceptional softness, character, and quality. The combination of Black Welsh Mountain and Polwarth brings together two very different strengths: the heritage and resilience of Black Welsh Mountain paired with the gentle softness and spinning pleasure that Polwarth is so well known for.
After shearing, the fleece travelled to a small family-run mill where it was washed, carded, and prepared with the care and attention that only small-scale processing can provide. The result is a beautifully lofty sliver with a soft handle, smooth preparation, and a drafting experience that is both effortless and rewarding.
Single-fleece provenance — an opportunity to spin fibre whose story can be traced back to one carefully selected flock.
Small-mill craftsmanship — thoughtfully processed to preserve the fleece's natural softness, bounce, and character.
A distinctive blend — Black Welsh Mountain's heritage and resilience paired with Polwarth's renowned softness create a fibre that is both characterful and wonderfully wearable.
Limited by nature — once this fleece is gone, it is gone. No two years, fleeces, or sheep are ever quite the same.
This is fibre with authenticity at its heart; perfect for spinners who value provenance, craftsmanship, and a genuine connection to the animals and people behind the wool. Soft, traceable, and full of character, it offers the chance to create something truly special from a fleece with a story of its own.
As with all natural wool from sheep living happily outdoors in the British countryside, you may find the occasional piece of vegetable matter or straw. We consider these tiny reminders of the fleece's origins to be part of its charm.
