NEW SEASON'S FLEECES!

FRESH FLEECES shorn 7.11.15
There are fewer coloured fleeces this year due to down-sizing the flock in preparation for relocating to a smaller property in Western Vic. in the new year. For this reason I have included the tender fleeces, at half price, which would still be suitable for hand-carding and spinning, or felting.
The first two black fleeces are from late lambs which arrived unexpectedly in December last year and missed shearing! They were not coated and still have a 'lamb tip'.
Micron and weights are approximate. After each fleece has been re-skirted and bagged I'll post accurate weights and prices in blue.
