Wonderful experience with the Buffalo wool Co. I'm glad I stumbled across this company. Had a small delay in shipping, when I called Buffalo Wool i got an owner's cell phone while they were working out in the field. The delay was fixed that day. The Buffalo Down is of the highest quality.

The bison is absolutely gorgeous and spins beautifully!

To be honest, I ordered this because I admire bison and wanted to be able to “pet” one safely. It is so soft! My family was impressed too.

A dream to spin!

I got this for a fun spin when we are able to travel again.

I was astonished. I've bought buffalo down from another source, and now I see what's possible... so clean, no neps, so perfectly dehaired.....and you gave me a freebie! Never going anywhere else for this, ever. Thanks! (with hearts and stuff),

While The Buffalo Wool Co. makes lots of products using buffalo yarn, they also sell buffalo fiber to spin. It does have a rather short staple length, but it is still easy to spin into a wonderful yarn.
I bought mine to use to blend with other fibers, and I fully expect to love the resulting yarn.

I loved spinning this fiber! I used a tahkli style supported spindle, spun fast and fine as recommended, holding a portion of fluff in my palm and spinning off my fingertips. The fiber is very well prepared and I had no waste. I spun half Z and did a two-ply S, and half S with a two-ply Z. I will use them to knit up some wrist warmers when I’m done looking at the lovely little buffalo yarn cakes.
