We have Icelandic fleeces for sale from organically fed sheep; we do not apply any chemicals to their fleeces. The wool is straight off the sheep and unwashed. The belly wool and most dung tags have been removed; some vegetable matter and a few dung tags may remain. The sheep are professionally sheared. The length of the wool varies. By buying a raw fleece, you have complete control over how you wash and card the wool. Scroll down for photos of the wool, amounts available, and prices. Email sarah@sunnyknollecofarm.com if you are interested in purchasing wool or just use the paypal buttons to buy a fleece now. You may pick up at the farm in Lovettsville VA or pay for shipping.
Currently available wool is shown below, with a photograph of each sheep right before being sheared.
