The long line will be available soon, we are waiting for our 2017 harvest to ret and then we can process it.
This fibre be been broken and scutched to separate and remove the woody shive from the linen fibres, then hackled by hand to remove any remaining shive, knots, and short line linen (tow). These fibres are great for hand spinners. Depending on the spinner, these fibres may require wrapping around a distaff. Our hackled linen fibres is available in 100-grams.
