2021 Boreray Fleece from Dani
This fleece is no longer available but we may have other Boreray fleeces available.
Description
Dani's fleece is a beautiful and unusual Boreray fleece. The colour is in rich shades of brown, grey and cream. As Boreray fleeces go, this one is fairly soft with a nice texture throughout. The staple has lovely wavy tips, is darker at the base and faded towards the end. There is some new growth at the base.

Dani did not have lambs in 2021 which may explain why her fleece is especially lovely this year.
