This fleece is no longer available but we may have other North Ronaldsay fleeces available.

Madeleine's fleece would be perfect for a "living rug" project, being quite heavily cotted at the neck area and tight but not cotted at the back. It's a lovely North Ronaldsay fleece, with long curly tips and natural shades of grey and brown throughout.
