WHITE ROVING
Climate beneficial, carbon farmed – yes, please! However, I didn’t want to sacrifice the quality that is often absent in roving typically produced with this type of sustainable practice. When I came across this roving I quickly realized that I had discovered the best of both worlds – high-quality and sustainable. When working with the Natural White Rambouillet, I feel as though I am literally working with a cumulus cloud.
