I am spinning three Shave 'Em to Save 'Em breed wools for my Tour de Fleece challenge this year.
The Livestock Conservancy has a five breed incentive challenge that I am going to try to complete. I've covered Jacob and Cotswold. Kaala, as a Clun Forest, was an obvious next pick. The Tunis roving came from Woolhalla Tunis and the Leicester Longwool locks came from Flock and Forge, fellow SESE farms I follow on Instagram.
I've started spinning the Tunis and it's lovely. The Clun Forest needs to be washed and carded before spinning. The Leicester locks...I'm going to comb some and maybe keep a few set aside to use as an edging or trim. They are so pretty I'm enjoying just looking at them :-).
Wool is beautiful.
