The Gotlands

Our Gotlands are three bothers and a sister from Prairie Willows Farm in  Chisago Lakes, Minnesota.  They are  wonderfully friendly sheep with beautiful fleece!

Gotland are a  modern, Swedish breed  developed from the more primitive Goth or Gutefar sheep.  Gotland is an unusual wool resembling a fine mohair or an English longwool. Their fleece averages around 8 - 9 pounds with a staple length of  5-7 inches and ranges from a very light silvery gray to black.  Gotland fleece can be spun from the lock, combed, or flicked.  When spun this fiber makes a heavy feeling yarn with wonderful draping qualities.
