Notes: This was the dirtiest prepared fiber I've ever dealt with. None fell out in the predrafting. I had to pick out by hand much of it and still much more fell out in each step of the process - spinning, plying, washing. There is still the occasional VM in the completed yarn. Other than that, this yarn is wonderfully soft and fluffy.
