~~Antique Spun Wool Bundles & Thread Ball - Shades of Mustard~~


I am offering for your consideration a wonderful group of antique hand spun wool yarn bundles. Perfect for your pegrail or early basket! Great nubby texture! In addition there is a ball of uniquely wound thread.

All are shades of mustard, however because of the hand dying process, some lean toward brown, some with a hint of green.

They were all hand carded, hand spun and hand dyed. One was marked that it had been dyed with marigold and iron. They were all, however dyed with natural dyes, which may have included goldenrod, walnut..etc., for example.

As you can see, the bundles vary in size. The thread ball is approximately the size of a large peach or about 9 inches in circumference.

Good clean condition. Found in Lancaster Pennsylvania.
