2022 Shetland Shearling Fleece from Chester
This fleece is no longer available but we may have other Shetland fleeces available.
Description
A good black fleece is hard to find and this lamb fleece isn't too shabby! It is quite small (under 1kg) as he was a late born lamb (an accidental birth in August 2021 thanks to a new ram getting excited!). Lovely and soft, but it is 'split' in places, all of which is reflected in the asking price. Should spin well though.
