Radagast the Brown is one of my sweet wethers (castrated males), and he never fails to make me laugh!  Whether it's because he's gamboling about like a new lamb, or demanding scritches and nose-kisses, he has my heart, and has had it since he was 2 days old!  His roving is phenomenal - gorgeous shades of brown with tog and thel carded together - it is incredibly soft!  He will be a joy to spin and will make lovely garments for you!  Perfect for spinning, dyeing, needle-felting...anything!

For more about Radagast the Brown, please visit his Gallery!

If you haven't spun Icelandic before, please check out my video on spinning Black Velvet - I would recommend even slower spinning when it comes to Radagast as he has a bit more tog than my other Icelandics!  Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

Please remember that you are buying farm-fresh roving! My fleeces are processed by an amazing small-batch mill that spends a great deal of time skirting and picking the fleeces - however, it is impossible for them to remove all of the VM (vegetable matter). The roving is amazingly soft and clean, and the VM comes out easily. Thank you for understanding that what you are seeing is evidence of the good food our sheep enjoy!

Hand wash very gently in cold water - do not agitate Icelandic wool. Lay flat to dry.
