Flax is absolutely delightful to blend with all fibers, especially wool. This commercially dyed flax is smooth and fine, a very high quality.
A little flax goes a long way in your art batts, rolags, or other blended fibers. I only have a very limited amount of each color available, as dyed flax has been discontinued by my supplier. It is easy to spin this flax on a wheel or drop spindle - no need for a distaff!
Flax or Linen is considered by many to be the oldest plant fiber used in the world, especially popular in Egypt and Mesopotamia, with linen fabrics having been found dating back to 10,000 BC.
