This summer i made a stool using wool from these lovely sheep.They are Welsh Kerry Hills, their flock name is Dunstarn and they live in Addingham near Leeds. They are a pretty rare bread - i havent come across sheep with black markings like that before - they look amazing !The wool was really lovely to knit and all the more special when you know where it comes from.
