100 gram, Merino x Border Leicester Core Wool
 
Freshly sheared, this rustic boutique core is from our 2020 batch and does have a little VM and possible second cuts (although I tried to take as much of these out as I could). It is straight off Dobby's back to you. This is his lamb fleece, so his tips are quite grubby. Easy to wash, dry and process to a bright white. Sculpts quickly and firmly.
 
Dobby is a shy newcomer who has found a permanent place amongst our flock due to his superior fleece.  He leans more towards the Merino but with the crimps and luster from the BL.
 
I've really enjoyed trailing this fleece and I'm so happy it is good enough to release to you. I used it exclusively for the FUN Series as it works very well when wet felted with a Merino topcoat. Hope you enjoy the adventure of processing your own core. For processing tips go to my blog.
