4 ounces of locks washed in my smoke-free home.
The washing is done with the perspective of easy preparation for a handspinner.
Locks are distinct and easy to open up.
This Cheviot is very short and quite clean.
It was purchased from a leisure farm near Montreal that keeps a few sheep.
Perfect to spin woollen, prepared as rolags.

Process prior to sale:
This product was obtained as an unwashed fleece. I paid the farmer $12 per pound of wool.
The fleece was then skirted, and locks were individually selected and put into a bag.
By loads of 2 pounds, wool was washed. 6 scouring baths at 63 degrees celsius were done.
After drying, the weight loss calculated is around 25%.
