Tencel - $1.30/oz Tencel is similar to rayon, but I think you will find it is much silkier. It comes in top form for worsted spinning, and the long staple length makes it easy to spin.

Bamboo Top : $22/lb This may be my current favorite fiber. Bamboo is easy to spin, feels fabulous and takes dye well. It also makes great "fusion paper," and even has natural anti bacterial properties. What more can you ask from your fiber! Throw in the great price and you can see what makes this such a popular product. |
