I have been selling my raw fleeces successfully for many years now and wanted to share the basics of how I got started. Initially I knew nothing about wool, spinning and knitting. We got the sheep primarily to keep the border collie busy and to "mow" the surrounding overgrown fields on our property. The fiber aspect gradually evolved.

A local gal took an interest in my fleeces when she found out that I raised sheep. She was a spinner and made an offer to me and bought a few whole fleeces from me. Every year the shearer has to come and shear the sheep so why not sell the fleeces?
