SHEEP FLEECES
The fleeces are made on our farm in Ilomantsi, where
we rear our grey Kainuu sheep to maintain the hill landscape, a natural area of provincial significance. In summer, the sheep graze in the hillside fields and meadows.
The grey Kainuu sheep is a native Finnish breed that was close to dying out in the 1980s. Due to its rarity, the breed is still poorly known. The grey Kainuu sheep may be various shades of grey in colour, from almost white to practically black. It also, rarely, has a brown coat. The price of a fleece is determined by its size and quality.
