This is a really lovely fleece easy to card and spin. My technique is improving because it is so user friendly . Used to have sheep of my own in the 1970’s and 80’s but life got complicated and I am now in my 70 ‘s and starting up spinning again ! Bought myself a wheel and thoroughly enjoying this very special hobby!

Description
Our pure Romney coloured fleece is ideal for spinning into yarn or felting with. Our fleeces are not bleached or dyed so are perfect for hand dyeing. This raw fleece is straight from the sheep so will need washing and carding before it can be worked with.
The Romney sheep has the highest quality of fleece on any native British breed of sheep. The fleeces have long, crimped staples which are easy to spin and soft enough for use in the production of clothing.

Over the years I have spun a lot of fleece and I can honestly say this is so beautiful ( spun in the grease) I’ve ordered more on the strength ( grey & dark) the hand spun yarn plyed and was is so soft too. Such a gorgeous fleece.
This is my favourite - full of lanolin and wonderful to work with. I have been using for weaving seat cushions and this has held really well. The service from Romney Marsh was amazing and when we had issues with the courier they were really helpful. Can’t wait for it to be back in stock!
I was very pleased with my Romney fleece. I carded it with some silk as I can‘t wear wool next to my skin and knitted a stripped jumper with my own Zwartble sheep carded with cashmere. I am so pleased with my jumper. Carding your merino fleece now. I shall be back for more. Good quality, and a good price. I did not have to compost a single bit of your fleece. Thank you so so much, Laura
I received a beautiful, clean, gorgeous colour fleece from Romney Marsh Wools. Exceptional product and first class customer service. Can’t wait to spin it up! Thank you.
