Alee, I believe the seafoam is from my East Friesian ewe; it's fairly soft. Not like merino (although she has a bit in her), but not as coarse as some. The trio are different blends. The yellow/orange in the center is merino, the other two are bits of different wools blended together.
Thanks, Maggie! I've got them priced to sell as I'm needing the cash

Maggie, thanks for the Etsy thought. I've not got any listed there.
I've occasionally got fiber. Was there something in particular you were looking for? I've got a fleece off from a dorset wether that looks rather nice. It's from last year and I've not skirted it

I'd be willing to sell it. Make me an offer; I don't tend to sell many fleeces, but I'm in a money making mood and it'll save me processing, lol! I can weigh it a bit later and get a picture of it for you to help you decide if you'd like it

Oops! I kinda forgot to go back and figure that part out 
Just paypal it to me at desperatehorsewife AT gmail.com; reduce the shipping to $5 for all 3, so the total would be $35.
Thanks!

Thanks for the bump, Maggie 
I went through my fleeces today and realize I've not got any more white, so I think I'd better hang onto this so I have something that can be dyed However, if I end up with any more through the neighbors, I'll let you know. It's shearing season pretty quick and there always seem to be folks who'd rather dump it than process it.

Tracey, if you still have them, can I send you money for the last 2 skeins of yarn too? I think I really have to have them. I used the yarns I got from you already! I love them!!
