the fleece
Our Soays and Hebrideans both produce the highest quality fleeces, which we shear or hand-roo.
Uses include for Felted Fleece Rugs, scarves and insole linings can be made from the fleeces themselves.
From the spun wool: knitwear, crochet.
Other uses: Mulch and weed control, composting, slug repellent, home insulation and for pillow and cushion-stuffing.- which (due to possible hypo-allergenic properties) may provide relief for asthma sufferers
We can supply raw fleeces and wet felted products. For examples see the Products page and/or use the Contact Us page.
