Skirting a Raw Sheep Fleece | Dorset Wool

I thought it was about time to show how I go about skirting a raw fleece. As usual, I forgot to add something...I should have said that if you have purchased a quality fleece, the skirting should have already been done. You may still need to pick through to remove some missed second cuts or vegetable matter, but overall, you shouldn't be throwing chunks of poo covered or really dirty fleece away. If this is the case, you may need to contact the person you bought it from. Oh, and you will hear me say I don't want the video to be 20 minutes long...well...it ended up being almost that long anyways...lol
