@Zailrand Swaledale?

@jenebene Sheep breed or place?

@Zailrand sheep breed

they are really beautiful (I think)

My Swaledale wool sweaters are some of my favortites

@jenebene yes, they are a couple of swaledale rams owned by a friend in my header pic :) Very widespread around the northern pennines.

I generally use their fleece for rugs as it's quite rough wool - warm though so it makes good outerwear - quick and easy to spin too :)

Photo is my pet swaledale and her lamb - about 35 years ago :)
