Wool For Mixing Dubbing, Where To Buy Small Quantities
Do you know where I can buy wool in small quantities for mixing dubbing? An entire skein is expensive.
There are small packages of wool roving sold in hobby-lobby and joanns in different colors that works great for mixing in dubbing or using for wool head sculpins etc. Its over in the needle craft area. Print out a 40% off coupon for Hobby-Lobby to save a few bucks.
Bruce,
If you know anyone that does needlecraft, get on their good side. My wife knits, so I have a pretty good supply at the ready if needed.
Regards,
Scott
Many years ago '70's I went into a fabric store and spoke with the ladies. I told them what I was looking for and they let me pull off a short section of everything I wanted. There was no charge, then they said I could come back anytime. I don't think those skeins are measured that closely. I have seen some sold in pounds.
I order my wool roving from here, very reasonable with a big choice of colors. With free shipping.

PS. Wool dubbing will readily absorb water and is good for nymphs, correct?
