That's not a bad buy for merino 64's, it's a low price if it includes shipping though, but not badMerino 64's (the number refers to the micron count, the higher the number, the finer the fiber strands are, the softer the wool) is pretty nice stuff, although I'd like to spin a sample at that price, it may not be as nice as it soundsBut I do have to agree, it's not the most highly recommended fiber for a novice spinner, it can be slippery and more difficult to spin on, but if you can learn to spin with it, you can spin anythingDon't buy wool that people will sell to beginners that's really cheap either, unless you have an experienced spinner to show you what to look at in a roving or topOften this is full of short tufts of wool (second cuts) that make it very difficult to spin evenly and will end up pillingCorriedale, Shetland, Coopworth, or Romney may be better choices for you, but if you feel up to the challenge, go for itYou won't have lost much if it isn't goodIf you are anywhere near Maryland, please, take a trip to the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival just west of Baltimore next weekend (May 2 and 3)Talk to the spinners, talk to the vendors with wools for saleThese people will help you out (seek out Sheila Bosworth at Journey Wheel if no one else for advice) to find a wool you can work withDon't be afraid to tell them you're a noviceMost will let you try a sample of fiber to spin to see what you likeIntroduce yourself to anyone you see spindling on the grounds, and ask to watch them do what they do, trust me, no one will be offended and many spinners will be happy to watch you spin and give you pointersIf you aren't near MD, look at the Spin-Off website for a wool festival close to you and goHere in the Northeast they will be in full swing in the next few weeks and are well worth the drive to talk to and see other spinners, pat the fibers, and get to know the vendors.
