Imperfect CVM #422136
$85.00 Read moreA very soft CVM exhibiting several shades of dark and medium gray. Five inches long with quite a bit of energy. This fleece has some issues with the tips of its locks; they are quite caked in mud even after several soakings, and the tips broke off on about half of the locks that we sampled. Sold as a whole fleece weighing 2.0 pounds. With a little work with a flicker or Lock Pop, this will be a nice fleece.

Imperfect Lincoln #422230
$45.00 Add to cartA silky soft Lincoln lamb fleece in a deliciously dark charcoal color with 5″ long locks. The curly lamb tips are a dark brown and will create an interesting depth of color when this fiber is processed. This pound of fleece (16 ounces) was skirted for having too much vegetable matter, but the underlying fleece will be amazing with a little work with a Lock Pop. Lincoln is a Shave ‘Em to Save ‘Em breed; purchase will include a passport sticker for the Livestock Conservancy’s SE2SE Initiative.

Imperfect Rambouillet x Columbia #422216
$23.00 Read moreThis interesting crossbreed results in a medium to soft hand with locks measuring four to five inches in length. Unfortunately, this fleece summers from two maladies: it is tender and has more vegetbale matter than we allow in Good Clean Fiber. The tender nature of this fleece may make it difficult to remove all of the VM. Sold in one pound increments.

Imperfect Wensleydale #423133
$105.00 Add to cartThis is a white Wensleydale with 5″ and longer locks that ends up in our Imperfect category because of dirt that would not wash out. The dirt is inside the locks and will come out easily with processing on the Lock Pop; but it is going to be a dirty process and will require some elbow grease. Sold as a whole fleece weighing 2.3 pounds. Once processed, this dirty blonde fleece will reward you with some gorgeous fiber!
