Living Dreams Yarn Flax Fiber for Spinning Blending and Fiber Arts. Natural Undyed Vegan Combed Top.

Flax fiber is hard to find! This is natural colored. It's pretty well processed, although there are woody pieces to pick out. I spun it fine, dipping my hand in water frequently. I made singles for warp, and it seems strong; I also made 2-ply. Wash in hot water to set the twist, and "twack" it when dry to soften it up--the more you handle it, the less stiff it becomes.

Did I receive the right item? I this is not what I believe I ordered I was expecting the product on the photo .

Good to use for Santa brards

Very deceptive advertising! By the looks of the package I was expecting a pound of flax. Although, I could not find a description of size. When it arrived, it was a little 2 ounce package. Does not look like the picture in the ad. I have a problem in that I am doing a demonstration on spinning this Wednesday evening and all I have is this little 2 oz bag of flax. Very disappointed!

The staple length of these linen fibers is quite short (average is between 4-5.5" in the pack I received), but they are very fine. If you are hand spinning, I'd recommend combining this linen with a longer fiber for ease of handling. Good quality overall.
