Its fine crimp and medium staple length make it a versatile fibre that drafts smoothly, spins into airy, bouncy yarn, and offers remarkable stitch definition. Gentle against the skin yet resilient enough for everyday wear, Targhee is perfect for cosy sweaters, hats, and shawls.

Targhee is beloved by spinners for its balance of softness, bounce, and durability. It takes dye beautifully, producing rich and nuanced colourways, and the natural elasticity of the fibre creates yarns with warmth, comfort, and memory.
Care Instructions:
Hand wash in cool water with a gentle wool wash. Some colour may bleed during the first soak—this is completely normal for hand-dyed fibre. Avoid agitation and sudden temperature changes to prevent felting. Gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat to dry.
