Lincoln Longwool * SE2SE * Raw Wool * Rare Sheep Breed * Victoria

Lincoln Longwool * SE2SE * Raw Wool * Rare Sheep Breed * Victoria

Staple:  average 5.5-6" un-stretched          VM:  Some, easy to comb out     Crimp: Curly Waves

"Victoria" produced this beautiful fleece, nice dark color with a little grey at the base.  The locks are curly and lustrous, ranging from dark grey to a little red at the tips.  This fleece has an unusual handle, very silky.  

These locks will spin into a fantastic textural yarn or comb them to spin a strong durable yarn.  You can also use this wool for wet felting, needle felting, rug making, and other arts and crafts.

I washed a sample in Unicorn Power Scour and the low lanolin content was quickly removed.
