    not strictly a fiber, but the Two Color Shawl Spin-along/Knit-along looks like a great deal of fun.

    Love long wool. The wensleydale is such a pretty colorway.
    The Dorset Horn is a breed I have not spun yet and looks like it would be a fun spin:)

    This one IS my favorite - she is so right in talking about the sheen of this beautiful fiber. Wenslydales are one of the longwool sheep whose coats hang all the way to the ground.
