Alpaca owners who want to sell their fleece should contact us. The barn gets pretty full in the winter with big dumpy bags of fleece. Then John Arbon and I and hopefully this year, a retired sheep fleece grader, will get to work. Lots of breeders skirt their fleeces so they are very easy to grade, they bag the neck separately and don’t send us the seconds of thirds. We are selling coarse grade yarn to make woven rugs and an outer wear sock but we are using coarse grade blanket as the length is consistent and we can still process fully worsted which makes a much softer yarn.
