The color shift is AMAZING on this fleece! It starts with rich medium brown at the base then gradually shifts to blonde tips. This is a lamb fleece so it's extra soft and silky. Unlike some lamb fleeces, the tips are super strong!
Breed Note
Named for the Wensleydale region of North Yorkshire, England, this breed is celebrated for its long, lustrous fleece that forms beautiful hanging curls or ringlets.
How is the fiber processed?
MIA/ FIBER features the best parts of the fleece so they are ready for their next adventure with fellow makers! The fleece is skirted (short and dirty pieces along with debris are removed), then washed with Unicorn products to remove the lanolin and dirt. Some vegetable (VM) matter will remain and the level is noted in each listing.
