Non-irritant wool yardage
#1
Hello,

I'm working on a Central Asian kit (generic Andronovo-Skythian-Parthian) and, what with it being the dead of winter in the States, been thinking about adding extra layers like an undertunic and scarf.  Unfortunately I get a painful rash if I wear ordinary wool next to the skin.

So, I'm trying to find sources for by-the-yard woven wool of a less itchy variety.  I understand merino has a good reputation, but so far it appears to be available only as fine knits (like for T-shirts), felt and yarn.  Anyone know of anything that could be useable?
