Fleeces And Samples: Cotswold - The Cotswold is a rare and ancient breed dating all the way back to the Roman period. They originated in the Cotswold Hills in England. Due to preservation efforts they are returning in numbers. They are a large sheep producing 9-15 lbs. of fleece in course and lustrous ringlets. Cotswold fleece is used for Outerwear, heardwearing rug and carpet yarns with a 7-12" staple.
