"Love the Coopworth!"
"Just wanted to let you see what we have been doing with the wonderful roving we have gotten from you. We really love it. It is by far the best roving we have been able to buy to date, and my son has found that Coopworth is the best for felting. My son has also made me a wonderful top hat from the chocolate wool. He of course has been busy selling the nice hats he has made from your wool. We just want to thank you ever so much for offering your nice wool. We are eagerly awaiting our next order.
Thanks again."
If you are interested in one of their hats, you can contact Darla's sons by e-mailing her at shoshone@silverlink.net

Barb Gadawski, Lucille Kaye, and some of their friends in Oregon have been making Santas with our wool.
They wrote:
"Dear Martha,
Just a quick note to let you know that Eithne's wool turned out just beautiful for our Santas. I am so pleased.
Thank you for everything you have done to make our project complete and for your generous amount of wool. We made 9 santas in all and they are gorgeous and everyone is so pleased. There were four of us working on them. We only had about two handfulls of wool leftover."
Here are the photos of their Santas;
Comments from other customers;
"It was the first fleece I ever spun and it just flowed onto the spindle with just a little teasing right from the lock. I didn't wash it or anything and it was a dream."
"Received the rovings yesterday. The chocolate is wonderful but the silver is to die for!!! I am so glad to find someone with quality coopworth - it has always been one of my favorites and not easy to find. I have marked your website and you will here from me again. Thanks so much!"
"I recently purchased a fleece from you through eBay, and it arrived today. I am so thrilled with the wool that I would like to buy more of it from you."
