About: Brown Select Jacob
Jacobs are known for their distinctive spotted white and brown fleece. Staple lengths range from 3 to 6 inches, micron 27-35 and count of 46's-54's. The amount of white verses brown varies depending upon the individual sheep. At birth the brown is most intense and gradually lightens as the sheep ages. Jacob is known for being lofty and semi-lustrous. Because of its unique characteristics, Jacob is in high demand by handspinners. We feature the dark brown fleece.
