Fast forward to this past weekend and I was contemplating some Blue Faced Leicester fiber when my resident fiber guru, fluffysgarden, recommended I would be happier with Polworth. Since the cost difference was neglible and after she gave me a sample to spin, I purchased the polworth instead.
Also at the fiber gathering of spinners, one of the other participants had some cleaned polworth fleece that felt super soft. She was selling 4 ounces for $10 and I purchased two bags for 8 ounces. As you can see the staple length is about 4" and it has a subtle radiance that I hope maintains when the fiber is spun into yarn.
