This gray fleece came from, Bernie, our oldest Romney ewe. At eight years old she is still producing quality, soft wool!
Even though Bernie's staple length is shorter than average for our flock, her wool still spins into beautiful yarn.
Bernie is one of our vegetable and fruit eaters! We take our vegetable scraps out to the sheep and call, "Bernie, Bernie." She comes running over with big, wide eyes to see what we have for her. Bernie's favorite goodies are carrot peels, pears, and soft apples!

Here is the feedback we received on Bernie's 2010 fleece:
"Bernie's fleece arrived today. It is every bit as gorgeous as last year's fleece. Thanks so much for taking the care and time to provide us spinners with a quality product. I'll be in touch with my requests for next year's clip!" - M.J.M - Montana
