Cheviot is a lively, springy wool with exceptional bounce and resilience. Its distinctive helical crimp gives finished yarn elasticity, loft, and durability, making it a favorite for handspinning sweaters, socks, mittens, hats, and other long-wearing projects.
With a 29 micron fiber diameter and a 4–5 inch staple length, Cheviot drafts smoothly without feeling slippery, making it an excellent choice for both newer and experienced spinners. It spins beautifully in either a woolen or worsted style, producing yarn with crisp stitch definition and wonderful memory.
