Shirley was a Hampshire sheep owned by a friend. She was a beautiful sheep with a very sweet personality.

Her wool is as soft as Merino wool with a bit of extra bounce to it. It spins up into a stretchy yarn and I love to knit hats with it. Her fleece is so pretty! This 2-ply yarn will be perfect for most any project and soaks up dye like a sponge!

Skeins include: 125 yards/ 3.5 ounces

(ps- The sheep pictured is not Shirley- it is our little Luna the East Friesian sheep!)
