Cheviot White Roving

Springy and durable. Cheviot is a versatile, medium-grade fiber with excellent bounce and resilience, well suited for long-lasting projects. An excellent choice for beginning hand spinners.

Cheviot roving is known for its strength, bounce, and natural resilience. The fiber has a firm hand and a defined crimp that makes it easy to spin and especially good for projects that benefit from structure and durability. It produces yarns with body and memory, making it a solid choice for socks, sweaters, outer layers, and woven textiles. While it is less prone to felting than finer wools, it handles well on the wheel and holds stitch definition beautifully, resulting in hardworking yarns meant to be used and worn.
