Imperfect BFL #4117
$48.00 Add to cartNatural-colored BFL with 4″ staple length weighing in at a heavily-skirted 1.8 pounds. This fleece is tender, but the low vegetable matter content makes this an ideal candidate for adding texture and curls in a felting project, as the tenderness will not be apparent if the fleece is not processed.

Imperfect CVM x Rambouillet #42075
$52.00 Add to cartMedium to light gray CVM x Rambouillet crossbreed fleece with 3″ locks. This fleece is tender in many spots and will cause neps and noils when carding. For spinning, this fleece will give you texture for a tweed preparation, but will need to be blended with another fiber to create a yarn with integrity. For felting, this would make a nice textured base if carded woolen. This is being sold as a 1.6 pound (24 ounce) fleece.

Imperfect Gulf Coast Native #421004
$84.00 Add to cartA Gulf Coast Native fleece from the same flock that we sourced the fiber for our 2021 4th Quarter SE2SE club installment. This fleece, however, has both a little more vegetable matter than the fiber we used in the club, as well as a break right in the middle of the lock. At just 3.5 inches in length, that leaves less than 2″ in both of the broken halves; this fleece is most likely suited best for felting due to the short length of the resulting fibers. Sold as a whole 3.75 pound fleece.

Imperfect Jacob #423101
$50.00 Add to cartA white and dark gray Jacob fleece with 3″ locks and a medium hand. We found a few tender spots in this fleece and decided to relegate the whole thing to our Imperfect category, though much of it is likely sound. Sold as a whole fleece weighing 1.5 pounds.

Imperfect Lincoln #422068

Imperfect Lincoln #422238
$120.00 Add to cartHere is a variegated Lincoln fleece, light gray to silver with locks from one and a half to about three inches in length, and lots of luster. Its atypically short and various length is what puts it in our Imperfect category. While this fleece could be spun, we would not recommend it for a beginner. It is an ideal fleece for a felter. Sold as a whole fleece weighing 3.7 pounds.

Imperfect Merino Crossbreed #419112
$105.00 Add to cartA 3.75″ long Merino crossbreed with short, tight crimp and incredibly soft hand. Deep black in color with some brown on the tips, we fell in love with this fleece without checking for soundness. Unfortunately, much of the fleece is tender which pushed it into our Imperfect collection. Sold as a complete 3 pound, 10 ounce fleece, this would be a great fleece for a felter or for a spinner looking to make fine wool nepps in an art batt as the tenderness of the fiber will cause it to tear while processing.
