Jacob Sheepskins
Jacob sheep grow a medium grade wool (24-36 microns, Bradford count 44-56s, demi-luster),
with an open character, a soft springy handle and little or no kemp, or britchyness. 
Jacob sheep are sheared annually and grow 3 to 7 inches of wool (staple length) per year.

                           Navajo-Churro Sheepskins
Navajo-Churro wool comes in a wide range of natural colors (for a list of Navajo-Churro colors & patterns click here), is classified as coarse and is composed of three distinct types of fiber: 1) Inner Coat: wool fibers ranging from 10-35 microns, comprising 80% of the fleece, 2) Outer Coat: hair fibers measuring 35+ microns, comprising 10-20% of the fleece, 3) Kemp: short opaque fibers of 65+ microns, not to exceed 5% of the fleece. The fleece is open with no defined crimp and should be lustrous with a silky hand. Navajo-Churro sheep can grow 8" to 12" inches of wool a year (up to 1" per month).  We shear our Churros twice a year so staple lengths on our pelts range from 2" to 7".
