2021 Boreray Fleece from Izzy
This fleece is no longer available but we may have other Boreray fleeces available.
Description
Izzy's fleece has quite a long staple length for a Boreray fleece. It is very loose, has a subtle crimp and a very fine undercoat with coarser outer fibres. It's also fairly soft as Boreray fleeces go!
