Ideas for Use:

• Separate out all the colors into groups of color. For spinners - open the fibre out and spin a soft single thread. Use for weaving or ply with a fine cotton, silk or commercial woolen thread to strengthen the yarn for knitting. The fine thread will be almost hidden in the yarn and won't obscure the fabulous colors. 
• Use the beautiful shiny staples for extra texture in handwoven fabrics. 
• Handknot the staples into beautiful rugs or wall hangings. 
• Felters - use the colored staples as surface decoration. They look fantastic lightly felted into the surface of a natural color felt. 

Yak Top: Dark, very soft fiber, combed. The undercoat is similar to Cashmere but darker, almost charcoal...$5.90 an ounce or $47.00 per 1/2lb.

Cashmere: White.  This very, very soft, fine, short (approximately 2") fiber feels like down and is simply elegant when spun.  Light and warm.  Professionally processed, from Heine's Haven in Minnesota.  $15.00 per ounce.  #619209
