2023 Shetland Fleece from Daisy
This fleece is no longer available but we may have other Shetland fleeces available.
Description
Daisy's fine white fleece is a little bit dirty but this should wash out to leave a very rewarding fleece to work with. The tips of the staple are very crimpy especially along the spine area.
