Cormo

Cormo wool is fine, long-stapled, and very elastic, with a uniform, well-developed crimp. The staple length of a Cormo fleece is typically about 4-7 inches, and the micron count is normally 17-23.

Cormo fleece tends to have a little less lanolin than Merino or other fine wools. Cormo fiber is a bright white, and it takes dye well.

Because of its fineness, Cormo fiber is excellent for spinning fine, even lace-weight, yarns. Once spun into yarn, it works well for next to the skin projects. Cormo wool also felts easily and can be used for either wet-felting or needle felting projects.
