Title: Orf from raw fleece?
Post by: SallyintNorth on May 27, 2013, 08:46:41 pm

There's been some discussion on Ravelry about the (slim) possibility of a handspinner contracting orf if they handle a raw fleece and have any broken skin on their hands (and aren't wearing rubber gloves.)

I've posted the same in sheep and link to that here  (http://www.accidentalsmallholder.net/forum/index.php?topic=34406.0) - please could we keep any and all discussion on that thread?  Thanks.
