Romney wool is a type of wool that comes from the Romney sheep, a breed originally developed in England. Known for its long, lustrous fibers, Romney wool is prized for its strength and durability. It is often used in a variety of textile applications, including clothing, blankets, and carpets. This wool is particularly valued by knitters and weavers for its ability to hold shape and resist wear. Romney wool is also known for its natural elasticity, making it suitable for garments that require a bit of stretch. Its versatility and quality make it a popular choice among fiber artists.
