2022 Shetland Fleece from Peggy
This fleece is no longer available but we may have other Shetland fleeces available.
Description
Peggy's fleece is an interesting range of colours and textures ranging from black through to grey and dark brown. With a staple length of up to 17cm, it feels lovely to dip your hands into it and have a squeeze! The staple is longer around the hind end. It has a variable crimp and is partially cotted which would make it an ideal candidate for a rug.
