I'm assuming the small sample I sent you is "the spongy stuff I’ve sampled". I've been frustrated and disappointed by the rovings I've received back from my Southdown shearings sent off to processors.Can you tell me where you had yours processed, what the staple length was to begin with, whether or not you had it blended with another breed's fiber. And would you be willing to send me a very small sample? Sounds like you’ve had a very different experience with Southdown.

That's some sexy wool goodness! The new colors look wonderful, I especially like the green. It's rich and reminds me of tree dreams.

They were a lovely surprise and are on the needles already. The Border Leicester is exactly what I hoped it would be. Thanks so much. Ooooh, I recognize the stitch markers!
