Dark grey Romney with tussah and sari silk. This fleece was soft to begin with, and with the silks carded in too it is spectacularly yummy! About 2.5oz/bump. Order on website.

Three different fleeces from three local farms coming together in one project: Corriedale (white), Romney (dark gray), and Finn wool (blue gray).
The pattern is called Ice-cream Shawl by Lisa Hannes.

I love Regina’s flock and the wool. And the shepherdess herself of course!

Hand spun yarn from hand picked fleeces. The white is Corriedale and the gray Romney from Applewood Acre Sheep, NY. Nor’easter Yarns work directly with local farmers to make our roving and yarns.

Pattern is called Toph Hat by Woolly Wormhead.
