Whitefaced Woodlands

Peter Harkness of Barnsley has some fleeces from 25 of his Whitefaced Woodland sheep. He's happy for a small sum to go to his favourite charity Wateraid, and take the cost of the postage if required.

A fine wool due to having some merino introduced into the breed. Pleasant to spin and takes dye well. More about the Whitefaced Woodland breed
