I used some undyed Jacobs that went great.  I've also used some wool that
was dyed (don't know what kind, staple length about 2 inches) that was
nightmareish.

...what would be good types of fiber to learn with and what
fibers I should avoid until I have more experience.


John,

If Jacobs wool worked for you at the start, then I'd suggest using more Jacobs for a time. Once you've built up your confidence, then try something else.

That aside, I don't think there's a better all-around fiber than Romney. It's easy to work with, usually easily obtained, and generally spins up into a good, all-purpose yarn.
