Nests of Roving: Samba Carnival
by Pink Alpaca
£10.00
These 'Mini Fibre Nests' are actually cloud-like balls of hand pulled roving, blended from fine Merino, Silk and Trilobal Fibre in a Sparkle Blend. A special blend of super-soft and shiny Merino Wool, luxurious Silks and gorgeous sparkling Trilobal Nylon fibres. All skilfully blended on a hackle and carefully hand-pulled through a Diz, creating this lovely, light and open roving which is then rolled into small balls and is ready to be used in your next creative project. This series of colourways are inspired by dance music and styles of dance from around the world. The second one in the series was named 'Samba Carnival' as it features the glamorous and colourful and 'glitzy' costumes that we might see in Rio De Janeiro at a Street Carnival - lots of sparkling nylon and shimmering dyed silk fibres were added to this luscious blend as a result. These amazing little nests are perfect for a variety of textile art projects - Wet and Nuno-Felting, Spinning and Weaving, Embroidery, Needle Felting, Embellishing and many other mixed media arts. They are blended to order, and so the colours/fibre content may vary slightly but…the basic 'recipe of these fibres' will always be the same.…
