Finn Corriedale Border Leicester

Some time ago I showed a lovely wool sample: Finn-Corriedale-Border Leicester. Here's the small skein I spun:

Louet Victoria (singles) and Hansen Minispinner (plying)
WPI in 2-ply: 26

                          
                                  My cute WPI gauge, made by a spinning friend on Ravelry

The handle was clearly different than Finn or Corriedale. It has a clear longwool character, but not like Border Leicester. The wool felt more like a young Cotswold. Stiff in a way you wouldn't expect from so fine and soft wool, but not in an unpleasant way. It's very white, the yellowish in the photo of the skein comes from the lamps.

I like this wool a lot. It can be used for several techniques like weaving, knitting, crochet.

Finn-Corriedale/Border Leicester

Some days ago a there was a surprise in my mail box:

American Finnsheep 50% Corriedale/Border Leicester 50%. The fleece has strong and healthy fibers. It has characters from all three breeds: softness and lustre from the Finn, body from the Corriedale, and length and lustre without any of the coarseness of the Border Leicester. The staples are 13 cm long. I'll comb them and spin a thin yarn for lace.

Thank you haile!
