Best Uses
This one is a nice middle ground, with a little nature still tucked into the locks. Give it a quick pick or flick, and it's ready for spinning, lock spinning or weaving. Spin the dark and silver locks together for a moody tweed look, or sort them apart for two natural shades.

Working Notes
You'll find a few bits of hay, so plan on picking or flicking the locks before you spin. Lincoln's long staple drafts smoothly and doesn't need much twist. It makes a strong, shiny yarn with lovely drape.
