Har inte provat själv, men vet i alla fall att man kan köpa texel för att spinna, så det borde ju fungera.
Såhär står det om texel på World of Wool: The Texel sheep produces a good dense fleece of medium quality, which is suitable for fine carpet yarns, hosiery and knitwear, at the coarser count end. The wool is predominantly white, with fineness approx. 32-40microns and length, 80-150mm.
