Description
Another gorgeous fleece courtesy of the Forever Flock. This fleece is an Icelandic X Shetland which means not only does it have a lovely long staple but it is also deep and very soft. The colour is gentle shades of grey and whilst the staple is mostly straight is does have quite a dense, spongey, curly middle. Whats really unusual about this fleece is that the tail is attached – usually the tail doesn’t stay joined to the main body of the fleece when shorn but for some reason this one did and we think its a charming addition! Also we know we made Onyx fleece last year too! ….Thats the joy of a Felted Sheepskin! Onyx is a very unusual breed of ewe, she’s a shetland/manx cross, usually that cross take on the rich brown of the manx breed. However, Oxyx is a rare beautiful grey. Apparently nothing get’s past this sheep, she is a ewe that watches your every move, always first in line ready to move to fresh pasture!
The backing is a natural grey felt and is really durable and strong. This rug is squarish in shape would be suitable for the floor or a sofa and will look great anywhere.
