Icelandic Lamb Raw Wool Fleece (Fall Shearing)

This listing is for a lovely Icelandic Lamb Raw Wool Fleece from the fall shearing of 2023. This fleece is the result of 6 months’ growth from April - October 2023. Our sheep graze all summer and fall on a prairie pasture in west-central Minnesota.

This fleece comes from our lamb Luca who is coloring. The photos make it appear much lighter. Her fleece has a staple length of 6 inches. Icelandic wool is dual-coated, and can be handspun into lopi style yarn, or combed to spin the tog and thel separately. This fleece is very soft and would be ideal for handspinning.

1 pound 10 oz. of skirted wool with some VM and very few second cuts.

Value-added packaging as the fleece is mailed in a hand-sewn cotton pillowcase-style bag, perfect for breathable storage.

To unpackage fleece, carefully dump bag contents onto a large table. Slowly unroll fleece, cut side down and locks up. To see how we skirt and roll up our fleece , see our YouTube video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEiUzqmd7Ys
