The Radnor is a rare breed with a lovely, bulky wool, making this a good option for larger projects.
Each bag contains 100g of wool.
Origin: United Kingdom
About the breed
Radnor sheep are mainly raised around the border hills between Wales and England.
Their wool is still used by Welsh artisans for use in traditional weaving, but industrially most of their wool goes towards yarn for carpets.
Their creamy white fleeces are set off against their brown legs, and their faces are mostly tan, with a rather adorable grey nose.
