'Willamina' Navajo Churro Felted Sheepskin
Striking, tousled ‘beach blonde’ locks with a ginger undercoat.
Willamina is an ewe from the PNW with unique texture and color in her genes. Navajo Churro sheep have been tended by Diné shepherds since the 16th century. The sheep have a protective top coat and soft undercoat that is suited to Southwest climate extremes and coloring that reflects the desert landscape. The base of this felted sheepskin is made of American Rambouillet and Shaniko Wool Co. Merino to create a dense, cloud-like texture.
The dramatic lines of this wool and it’s beautiful heavy drape make it beautiful as a throw or a piece of fiber art to hang on your wall.
Size 43 x 27 inches
