Oogiem Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I've never entered any wool shows with my sheep fleeces but I was convinced to enter one of my fleeces in the TN state Fair wool show.... And I won Reserve Grand Champion Ewe! And this is with a reject fleece! Really thrilled to win against all other breed and with black wool at that...

The Purple Diane Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 That's awesome! Why TN if you're in CO? Quote Link to comment
Oogiem Posted September 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 They allow mailed in entries and there was a class for Black Welsh Mountain sheep fleeces. The wool show organizer was short of enough fleeces to keep the class so wrote to me asking if I could possible send anything. We have a breeder of Black Welsh in TN who has been working hard to keep the breed classes going but was short on good fleeces this year. So I sent in a leftover fleece.
