Comments about Alpaca Direct Ecru Colonial Top:

I recently used this roving as the two foundation layers on Artfelt. Then I blended it with blue for the sky and brown for the soil, on the felted purse I was designing. It is easy to work with and felts well. It would also spin up nicely as it is quite soft and has a consistent color.

I am a beginning spinner and found that this was easy to draft, spin and the final product was easy to dye using koolaid and food coloring.
