5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely beautiful fleece. Currently processing all of the wools I got from this seller and they have a minimal amount of VM and debris, and my first wash on this fleece was cleaner than my third wash on the last fleece I processed! I was also able to get information about the sheep from the seller so that I can share with my customers. As a small time dyer and wool processor, I believe in shopping local, and so do my customers. Very proud to be processing this wool!

5 out of 5 starsThis is my second fleece from this shop and I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to be a fiber artist and to find such quality online/unseen. I am ecstatic with this shop and their wonderful Jacob's. I have been burnt too many times with online fleece purchases, however, this shop has just made my top 3 without second guesses. Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsWOW! I opened the bag and honestly thought the wool had already been cleaned. It washed up beautifully and the remaining vm is a breeze to pick out. I will definitely be ordering again!

Jacob Sheep Fleeces and Fiber Arts
Jacob sheep wool is considered medium fine and has an average staple length of 3-6 inches. It is very light in the grease which makes it a great wool to try spinning in the grease, but if that's not your style, it washes up beautifully with little weight lost in washing. Our flock of Jacob sheep has been selectively bred to produce excellent quality fleeces for hand spinning and wool arts of many kinds.
Every one of our sheep has a unique fleece quality, style, and color ratio. We try to match each fiber artist with the fleece that is best suited for their purposes.
As fiber artists ourselves, we understand the importance of excellent wool quality with little vegetable matter or second cuts to get in the way of you making something amazing with the wool.
Our farm is also a part of the Shave 'Em to Save 'Em Initiative. It’s a program that recognizes fiber artists for using wool from breeds of sheep on the Livestock Conservation Priority List which includes our Jacob Sheep.
