Post by: Backinwellies on July 03, 2014, 12:12:19 pm
Hi

Anyone want to spin some Llanwenog fleece?    For sale (£4/fleece plus p&p)  or in exchange for spinning some wool for me.

Carmarthenshire.

One of my - actually, two of my neighbours have Llanwenogs.  Nice fleece :).  Dyes well, easy to wash, spins nicely, sproingy.  A bit like a Downs fibre but a bit longer.

Your local handspinners should be forming a line!

Linda, gave me one of her fleece a few weeks ago. It is very nice to spin. I did give her a skein back but I have to admit I didn't make a very good job of it. I think my wheel was a bit unwell at the time.
Well, thats my excuse anyway  :roflanim:

Now if I didn't have a house full of fleeces..........
(  note to self - don't be tempted there's not enough hours in a day/ lifetime for all you're trying to do) :)
