We are very excited to be able to offer for sale Orkney Boreray spinning fibre and spun yarn
from the Burnside flock. Please email boreray@runbox.com if you'd like to buy any
of the spinning fibre, yarn or fine fleece.
The spinning fibre is available in bags of 110g.
The spun yarn is available in a 4-ply (fingering) weight in skeins of
approx 100g or 50g. This yarn is wonderful for plain or textured
knitting or stranded work.
A few of the Orkney Boreray sheep have a unique fleece that has little or no outercoat and
a gorgeous fine undercoat. This is such a joy to handle and spin.
The quantities are small, although we are doing some selective breeding to try and increase
the number of sheep with this fleece.
I can take pre-orders for this fleece from the 2024 rooing.
