From the EarthStar Farm Website:
"Our flock of Cormo sheep are all descended from Merino x Corriedale parentage and are carefully bred to ensure finest quality fiber (super-fine 16-21 microns). Cormo sheep are a relatively new breed that exotically hail from Tasmania, AUS where sheep reign supreme!
EarthStar Farm is located on 33+ acres tucked at the foot of the ski & snowboard famous snowy slopes of Big Mountain (aka Whitefish Mountain Resort). The deep-cold winter climate of the Rocky Mountains in Whitefish, MT helps our sheep grow extra fine, soft, and thick fleece."
If you are looking for something special, Cormo Fingering is your yarn. This un-dyed 2-ply yarn is round and soft and shows texture well. Because Earthstar is family-owned small local farm, sheering is not often. Be sure to order what you need for your project as it could be many months before a restock.
