Of Interest: Video about Cleaning and Spinning Cladoir Fleece – Sandra King of Irish Fibre Crafters

Close-up image of a Cladior sheep with a thick, woolly coat, taken at Connemara National Park. The sheep is facing slightly to the left, showcasing its distinctive features in a natural setting.

While this video from Zwartbles Ireland-Suzanna Crampton is from two years ago, it may still be of interest to those interested in Irish-raised sheep and wool. See Cladoir sheep being sheared at a festival in Connemara National Park, and their wool spun in the raw by Sandra King of Irish Fibre Crafters and other spinners.
