Fleece for Sale
BFL Lamb #723165
$252.00 Add to cartA white BFL lamb fleece with a medium to soft hand in 6″ long locks. While about half the locks seem to be the typical thin, crimpy, BFL style, the other half are more open and less energized. This naughty lamb shook off its coat a few times during the growing season, and there are spots that have more VM than we typically see in a coated fleece. This will be a fun and interesting fleece to process. Sold as a whole 2.2 pound fleece.

BFL x Clun Forest x Texel #720023
$175.00 Add to cartWe are offering for the first time a BFL x Clun Forest x Texel. The 5” locks are somewhat coarser than the BFL x Clun Forest cross.

Original price was: $30.00.$25.00Current price is: $25.00. Select optionsThis is a Blue Faced Leicester crossed with a California Variegated Mutant or BFL x CVM. It is a white fleece with quite a bit of yolk. It would be very interesting if overdyed. This fleece takes its crimp and non-descript lock structure from the CVM and has the hand of a BFL. We would describe it as soft to medium in fineness, excellent for socks. The locks are 4 to 5-inches in length.

$122.00 Add to cartA white four-way cross that looks a bit like its three long wool breeds but has a softer hand than expected due to the influence of the CVM.
