Firefly Fields - Fiber

Our Customers Say...

"While purchasing sheep via the internet can be a scary proposition, we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived to pick up our lambs at Firefly Fields Finnsheep.

The lambs were the largest we have purchased and all were in excellent health and condition. Copies of all records pertaining to health, nutrition and care were provided with the sale as well as a few pounds of the lambs' current feed. Fleece quality was exactly as stated at the time we reserved our lambs.

We are quite pleased with the honesty and integrity in which the lambs were represented and raised and we would feel confident recommending Firefly Fields Finnsheep as a resource for quality, registered Finnsheep."

“I think I may also try felting with it – I’ve been sort of “saving it” cause it’s so gorgeous and hate to use it – so nice to just look at – and definitely one of the nicest fleeces I’ve ever had the pleasure of spinning – I didn’t even card it – just washed it and spun from the locks – my favorite way – no preparation !”

"I attended a spinning workshop last fall and one of my classmates had some Finn roving. It was soft and had a wonderful sheen, which prompted me to look for Finn fleece. I am so glad I found your site! The fleece I received is incredibly soft and shiny. I am looking forward to next year's fleeces already.... Thanks for sharing."

"The fleece arrived yesterday and I couldn't wait to open it up!! I pulled a large lock out, washed it, let it dry and spun it up on a spindle --- wonderful!!!! If the entire fleece is as clean as what is at the top of the box -FANTASTIC!!! And It's soooooo soft !!!!! :-) One of the best I've ever received and of course, Finn is one of my favorites....

Thanks for the wonderful fiber and I will make sure that everyone in my guild knows about it. I will be demonstrating spinning at the Mt. State Arts & Crafts Fair in Ripley, WV this weekend - if I get time, I'm going to wash some of the fleece and take it with me to demonstrate with (and let everyone know where I got it :-D). Just flick the ends of the locks and go!"

Thanks!!!!
