natural gray Icelandic cross lamb fleece



This is an Icelandic cross lamb fleece that weighs about four pounds. It is quite soft, and spinnable straight from the bag. I regard it as a "raw fleece" though I did wash it once or twice and got most of the grease and some of the dirt out, so you're not paying for grease weight. There isn't too much vm and overall, it's a nice fleece. The color is what attracted me--it ranges from light tan to dark brown gray. I think it will be fun to spin and make an unusual yarn. It would also make a great roving. Offered at $10 per pound plus shipping from 43952.
