Western European Linen Fibre
Beautiful long-staple flax fibre combed into a smooth, lustrous top—ready for spinning, needle felting or blending into art batts.
This flax is grown and processed entirely in Western Europe, where the cool climate produces some of the finest linen fibres in the world. The fibre is dew-retted, a traditional process in which moisture and microorganisms gently separate the fibres from the plant stems.
Flax spins best with lightly damp fingertips, allowing the fibres to draft smoothly and producing a strong, elegant linen yarn.
Choose between two preparations:
• Natural flax – unbleached fibre in its natural silver-beige tone
• Bleached flax – clean white linen fibre ideal for dyeing
• Hand spinning
• Needle felting
• Fibre blending
• Textile art and fibre crafts
• Linen yarn production
Flax adds strength, sheen and crisp structure to yarns and textile work.
• 100% flax / linen
• Combed flax top
• Dew-retted fibre
• Colours: natural silver-beige or bleached white
• Grown and processed in Western Europe
• Plastic-free packaging
Hand wash finished items gently and dry flat. Linen fibres soften beautifully with wear and washing.
Medium-Fine Wool | Strong, Durable Felt | Needle & Wet Felting
A beautifully dyed, medium-fine carded fleece blend designed for strong, reliable felt.
This fibre combines 50% Stone Sheep with 50% mulesing-free New Zealand Merino. Each colourway is a melange (heathered) blend of dyed fibre mixed with naturally dark brown or black wool, creating depth, shadow, and a more dimensional finished surface.
The result is a robust felt with visible fibre movement and rich colour variation.
• 50% Stone Sheep · 50% New Zealand Merino
• Approx. 27–29 micron (medium-fine)
• Medium staple length
• Carded fleece preparation
• Melange / heathered colour blends
• Blended & dyed in Germany
• Mulesing-free fibre sourcing
• Wet felting
• Needle felting
• Bags and vessels
• Hats and slippers
• Sculptural work
• Masks and toys
• Relief panels and wall art
• Appliqué and colour shading
The medium staple allows for reliable layout and strong fulling. The fibre flow remains visible in finished pieces, giving a crafted and textured appearance.
• Felts readily
• Produces strong, durable surfaces
• Excellent for structured projects
• Suitable for both needle and wet techniques
Hand wash cool if needed. Reshape and dry flat.
We aim to represent colours as accurately as possible. Screen settings may affect the perception of tone and depth.
Strong Natural Fibre from the Nettle Family
Ramie is a beautiful plant fibre derived from the ramie nettle (Boehmeria nivea), a traditional textile plant used for thousands of years in Asia.
The fibre is naturally white with a silky lustre and shares many characteristics with flax/linen. Ramie fibres are extremely strong, highly absorbent and take dye beautifully.
Compared with flax, ramie is slightly coarser but ramie fibres are naturally very long and strong. After processing into roving the staple length is typically around 6–15 cm, making it suitable for spinning and fibre blending.
Ramie can also be used in fibre art and textile projects such as doll hair or decorative fibre work.
• Hand spinning
• Fibre blending
• Doll hair
• Dyeing experiments
• Textile art and fibre crafts
• Felting when blended with wool
Ramie does not felt on its own but bonds well with wool when incorporated into felted work.
• 100% ramie fibre
• Plant fibre from the ramie nettle
• Approx. 25–30 micron
• Natural white colour
• Long strong fibres
• Vegan friendly
Ramie fibres are very strong and durable. Finished textiles should be hand washed gently and dried flat.
Strong Natural Plant Fibre
Beautiful, high-quality hemp fibre combed into a smooth spinning top. This degummed hemp roving is ready for spinning and other fibre art projects.
Hemp is one of the oldest textile fibres used by humans and comes from the stems of the Cannabis sativa plant. As a bast fibre, it shares characteristics with flax and ramie: strong, durable and naturally lustrous.
This hemp has been degummed, removing the natural plant gums so the fibre drafts more smoothly when spinning.
You can choose between two variants:
• Natural hemp – soft beige natural fibre colour
• Oxygen bleached hemp – light, clean fibre ideal for dyeing
Hemp fibres produce strong yarns and add durability and structure when blended with other fibres.
• Hand spinning
• Fibre blending
• Textile art and fibre crafts
• Strong plant fibre yarns
• Felting when blended with wool
Like other plant fibres, hemp does not felt on its own but bonds well with wool in felting projects.
• 100% hemp fibre
• Degummed hemp top
• Colours: natural or oxygen bleached
• Strong bast fibre
• Suitable for spinning and fibre blending
Hemp is considered one of the most environmentally friendly textile fibres. The plant grows quickly, requires little irrigation and typically needs fewer agricultural inputs than many other fibre crops.
Finished hemp textiles can be hand washed gently and dried flat. Hemp fibres soften with wear and washing.
Individual Colour Collection
Bheda wool is a versatile felting wool available in a wide range of rich, vibrant colours.
This wool combines the best characteristics of several sheep breeds including Ryeland, Suffolk, Shetland, Romney and Jacob, resulting in a balanced fibre that felts easily and creates smooth, durable felt.
The wool originates from New Zealand sheep farms and is guaranteed mulesing-free.
Each colour is dyed by hand using safe Swiss dyes, creating a palette of beautiful colours suitable for both beginners and experienced fibre artists.
Bheda wool is dyed in a workshop that provides employment opportunities for underprivileged women, supporting socially responsible production and fair working conditions.
This listing contains 55 individual colours.
Choose your colour from the dropdown menu.
Each colour is shown in the product images.
• Needle felting
• Wet felting
• Fibre blending
• Textile art
• Craft projects
With an average fibre fineness of approx. 25 microns, Bheda wool is considered a fine to medium wool, making it easy to felt while still providing strength and structure.
• 100% wool
• Fibre fineness approx. 25 microns
• Wool sourced from New Zealand farms
• Guaranteed mulesing-free
• Hand dyed using safe Swiss dyes
Because Bheda wool is dyed using traditional hand-dyeing methods, slight colour differences between batches may occur.
For larger projects we recommend ordering enough wool at the same time to minimise variation between colours.
Finished felted items should be hand washed gently in lukewarm water and dried flat.
Natural Tussah silk roving with a softly textured character and gentle natural sheen. Tussah silk is a wild silk fibre produced by oak-feeding silk moths, whose cocoons yield the naturally warm honey and ivory tones typical of this fibre.
Unlike mulberry silk, Tussah cocoons are often collected only after the moth has naturally emerged. Because of this, the silk is frequently referred to as “vegetarian silk.” The emergence of the moth breaks the continuous filament, resulting in a shorter staple fibre that is spun or prepared as roving.
Tussah silk is slightly less smooth and glossy than mulberry silk, but it brings beautiful character, warmth and natural sheen to yarns and fibre blends. The fibre is also lighter and fluffier to the touch, making it very pleasant to spin and blend.
• Hand spinning
• Fibre blending
• Textile art and fibre work
• Adding sheen and texture to yarns
• Blending with wool, yak or other luxury fibres
• 100% Tussah silk
• Wild silk from oak silk moth cocoons
• Soft sheen with slightly textured handle
• Shorter staple typical of wild silk fibres
Hand wash finished items gently in lukewarm water and dry flat. Avoid strong agitation.
