These 100% Cotton Poonies are made by hand in India and are perfect for spinning on your Charkha, supported spindle, or wheel. These cigar shaped rollags are hand rolled tightly around a wire which produces a tighter firmer rollag that will not fall apart when spinning.  These are then bundled together in a paper bundle and tied with cord before being shipped to us.  We love spinning these Poonies on our Charkha because they are much tighter packed than the average rollag produced on a hand carder and we find that  we can spin them right out of the package without any additional preparation.  Note, cotton can be a harder fiber to spin for those with less experience,  so if this is your first time spinning cotton be prepared to lose some fiber to the learning process.

This natural top is a light cream color; it is a standard color by The Fiberists and is available for on demand ordering. Colors may vary from what they appear on your screen.

Finished items created from this top are recommended hand wash only. While this top is 100% cotton and can tolerate agitation while wet without felting, The Fiberists recommend all projects be hand washed in cold water to ensure longevity.

Poonies

These ponies are wonderful. I was having a hard time giving my spun cotton ornaments a final coat of cotton to make them smoother and ready to paint. These poonies were easy to apply, the fiber was long enough to wrap them around the animals I am making. You were recommended by Maria Paula and I am so glad she put me in touch with you. Thank you for such an excellent product.
