Pencil Roving, Natural
Pencil Roving, Natural

Natural Pencil Roving comes in coils of about 1/2 lb. These coils are often called a ‘cheese’ of pencil roving, because of its shape.
Most of our natural – undyed – pencil roving is white but we also carry light grey and dark grey.
Wool is in the pencil roving stage before it is twisted, or spun, to make yarn. The pencil roving that we sell most often goes into making thrum products, but customers have found other creative uses too, including weaving and needle felting.
As with all our products, this is washable following our instructions, and comes with Topsy Farms Guarantee of Excellence.

This roving is good for making thrummed mittens but lately I have been experimenting. In older Scandinavian knitting, roving was used to knit mittens, partially felted and brushed, then embroidered. I am trying that now. It’s a bit tricky because of the thinness of the roving, but not impossible. Best to hand roll it into a ball first, doubling the fibre by rolling it from the middle and the outside. As you knit you can give it a gentle twist. If the roving breaks, just do a quick over/under with the ends a few times to rejoin it. I will send a photo when I am done!
This winter, I discovered the joy of making thrummed mittens using this pencil roving-so warm!
