A part fleece (this ewe had shed some before shearing)

'Gerold'
Lleyn Ram
3.9 kg
This is a gorgeous fleece! Lovely creamy, fluffy, open wool.
Gerold's fleece is intact, and if handled carefully, can be laid out in a complete sheep shape, although itdoes pull open easily.
Alternatively, it looks like lovely wool for spinning and peg looms etc.
SOLD
Fleece 22 £6
Lleyn
2.6kg
This one is partially felted - mainly around the 'bottom' area. Looser and falling open at the neck and sides.
It might make a good rug fleece - but please note it really does need a good wash! Not sure what this ewe had been up to before shearing, but she forgot to take a shower! Has been skirted - poo etc removed, just generally in need of a good soak!
