Icelandic Wool Shawls
I hand spin the fleece from my sheep and then crochet the shawls from the yarn. The shawls are all triangular in shape, made with a fine singles yarn, and are lightweight but warm thanks to the special qualities of Icelandic fleece.
I use the best combination of the natural colours of the fleece, making each shawl ewe-nique!
I am also experimenting with blending Alpaca or silk in with the Icelandic wool.
