    Description

    Up for sale are
    5.3 lbs of
    washed wool curls. They are a nice shade of white color, but because this is a lambs fleece there are tips. The tips have more yellow to them than the rest of the fleece. These have a nice uniform curl. They are an average size curl and are about 8-9" in length. See PIC. Great for my Santa doll makers. They have very little VM (vegetable matter) in the wool. The wool is washed with my special process, so the wool keeps its lock formation and not so fuzzy. You are purchasing the fleece shown in the pictures. The Border Leicester is considered a longwool breed and has a medium curl. Smaller than the Lincoln longwool breed. I have also added these to my yarns in the past to make creative novelty yarns. They wet felt well and my friends use them for beards or hair on their needle felted dolls.
    These curls are the creation of Victoria Station, a small cottage business located in central Ohio and has been in business since the late 1980's. All aspects of preparing this wool is done by Victoria Station. There is no middleperson and all our fibers are from a smoke free home.
