@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 :)
