"Falkland" is actually a location, not a breed of sheep!
This wool comes from the Falkland Islands, a UK territory off the coast of South America, and the sheep that reside there, which are a Romney and Corriedale cross with some Merino in the mix. These sheep are renown for their hardiness and quite high quality, super fine wool that is a superior shade of white naturally.
Falkland wool is an easy spinning wool too, with a long 3-5" staple length, and is considered to be ideal for spinning into bulky, lofty yarns with a soft hand.
Not only a hand spindle and wheel spinners dream, Falkland Wool is also Highly Recommended for Ultra-Fine Felting Projects!
