#7155 CVM/Merino Cross Ewe *Whole Fleece*
This fleece has so many fun colors! From light great to a deep grey that is close to a black. It is a very clean fleece with very little vegetable matter or dirt. Sadly, her fleece was weak. It is not a broken fleece, but it is definitely greatly compromised. It will have to processed with great care for it not to break and pill. Because this fleece is a little weaker, it would be great to use for felting, but it can also be spun to make some very soft yarn with some amazing colors.
Cleanliness: Excellent
Strength: Fair
Fleece Quality: Fair
Weight Approximately: 5.5 lbs

Cactus Hill Farm is a Certified Organic farm. We do no certify our sheep or wool but our sheep are raised on organic feed and pasture. We like our animals to have space to roam, so all of our sheep are left out on pastures during the year and only penned up when babies are young. Cactus Hill farm is a multi-generational family farm and we strive to be good stewards of our land of and of the lives we care for. All of our fleeces are skirted and the most yucky parts removed. We blanket as many of our ewes as possible so that we can offer you the most premium wool possible.
