Needle Felting & Wet Felting

Corriedale is perfect for needle felting because of the diameter of the wool fibers and the very springy texture. These characteristics make it easy for the felting needle to catch on the wool fibers. Many crafters prefer Corriedale as their go-to core felting wool rather than merino or lesser-known breeds.

While it’s perfect for needle felting crafters also use it for wet felting projects, however, it is best blended with merino or another faster felter breed for wet felting projects. Adding Corriedale to a wet felting project slows the felting process which gives you more control over the final piece, but it will also make the piece a tad more bulky in most cases.

Spinning

Favored by spinners, Corriedale wool is medium-fine with good softness and is somewhat between medium wool and long wool.

Corriedale is a popular beginner spinner wool fiber due to its fiber length and strength. Our Corriedale wool has been cleaned and processed into a continuous length to ensure the fibers are all aligned.

Arm or Hand Knitting

Arm knitting is an easy and popular approach for beginners. For this technique, needles are not necessary! Also called arm weaving, or arm crocheting, this technique is often used for larger-scale projects such as a blanket, rugs, scarves, or pillows.

Corriedale works well for these projects due to its ability to grip and durability. When weaving it is less likely to slip around or become loose.
