There are so many words for the fluff stage of fiber: sliver, roving, pencil roving, rolag, and I can't remember what other ones I've forgotten. They relate to a stage or a style of spinning of one's preference. It's all fluff to me, but lovely fluff. I think I finally know that "fleece" does not belong to this group of words, but you can correct me on that, too.

ReplyDeleteI'm really starting to get into colors, finally, Kate. What a wonderful world!
ReplyDeleteYour colours are really beautiful with fluff that one can feel! I like the word fluff by the way.
