Come explore the Boreray sheep, including its history and the fiber it gives us for spinning, knitting, crocheting, felting, and weaving. Boreray sheep are one of two rare breeds that originate on the St Kilda archipelago in the north Atlantic Ocean. As an ancient breed, Borerays' wool is variable and some of it can be surprisingly soft! The stories of the islands of St Kilda, the people, and the sheep are fascinating. It's been a pleasure to dig into them more deeply and share some of them, from a fiber-person's perspective.

Printed document plus free digital version; 8x8" publication. This document contains theory and practical knowledge for fiber arts enthusiasts of all skill levels. The handouts are heavily illustrated.
