Here's your opportunity to purchase washed Jacob wool from our own flock of Jacob sheep!  The fiber has been skirted and cleaned. We wash the wool ourselves in very hot water and use biodegradable soap. It's ready to be picked and carded into batts for spinning or just spin from the locks!  We don't get everything out - there will be some plant debris which will likely fall out as you work with it.

Get 4 oz, 8 oz or a whole pound!  The locks are about 3" long with some smaller pieces and an occasional bit of plant debris.

Jacob sheep are a heritage breed and are considered threatened by the Livestock Conservancy.  The Livestock Conservancy has a Shave 'Em to Save 'Em program and we provide stickers to those who participate.

    The order was filled very promptly and received in good shape. The wool was well scoured and ready for finish processing. Definitely would purchase this again.
