Natural Bamboo Roving For spinning/ Dyeing 4 0z
Hi, Welcome to Traditions Fiber Arts & Antiques auctions and store.
My Ashford products are all new in the box or package, unless specified otherwise.
I am an avid spinner and love exploring different fibers, mixing fibers, spinning novelty yarns and experimenting with natural and other dyes and dying methods.
I have woven on a floor loom, inkle loom, knitters loom (rigid heddle) and tri-loom. I also have a hand made cedar Navajo loom.
I presently do not carry a huge inventory of weaving supplies and all of the larger items will be drop shipped from the wholesaler immediately after payment. There may be a week delay in shipping some small items, so check with me if time is of the essence.
Bamboo Roving
This is four ounces of natural colored, lovely, soft, lustrous bamboo roving for spinning. The fiber in this roving has a 3" staple length and is already for spinning or blending with any other prepared fiber.
It produces a lustrous yarn with an incredible sheen and is silky soft. It is wonderful when plied with silk, and may also be spun with cotton, tencil, wool or flax.
You may dye or hand paint the roving or the yarn to produce fabulous colors with a great sheen.
Check my other auctions or store, as I will be listing more of this fiber in colors and will be listing bamboo yarn and bamboo yarn plied with silk and other fibers.
Bamboo is one of the hot new fibers for spinning and making clothes.
The manufacturer reports:
Bamboo is an environmentally friendly fiber.
Bamboo has a unique anti-bacteria agent that has been shown to last through many washings.
Bamboo is naturally pest resistant and can be grown without the use of pesticides.
Due to its fiber structure with micro-holes bamboo can absorb and evaporate sweat from human skin in a fraction of a second.
Bamboo has the sheen, weight, and drape of silk. It is more alkaline tolerant and is not harmed by the aluminum in antiperspirants.
