Find handspinning quality wool and fleeces available here

Shearing happens a couple of times per year on the farm. We always have fleeces available but the most popular sell out quickly, like “blue” Coopworth. We have lots of processed wool for sale as well from these lovely fleeces in roving, yarns and batts.

Sage Creek Targhee Fleeces – classed and sold by Cooke Creek Sheep Co.

CCS is partnering with Tommy and Laura Mills of Sage Creek Targhee to offer Wyoming Targhee fleeces for sale. Sage Creek focuses on raising hardy finewool Targhee breeding stock in the harsh Deaver, WY environment. With micron testing of 20-22 in adult fleeces (finer for yearlings), annual staple lengths are generous for the breed standard, some as high as 5 inches. These sheep have not worn coats and are fed alfalfa in the winter months but have been heavily skirted by a picky handspinner/wool classer. There are plans for feed management changes to minimize VM contamination for next shearing, but the bit of extra work required to process these will pay off with the bright white, fineness, and beautiful handle of this healthy wool.

Very fine, will wash up to bright white, moderate VM but brushes out easily (see photo). The very tips can be tender and come off in process
