A Small Jacob Fleece Wool Felted Sheepskin Seat Pad

I made this unique seat pad from part of a Jacob fleece. This seat pad has warm brown and cream shades, the locks vary in length.  You could use the pad on a hard chair, sofa /settee or car seat, it will provide a soft warm pad.

Jacob Sheep

Jacob sheep have fleece that vary in colour and length of staple.  The colours vary from dark brown with golden tips, as a result they form a unique patchwork effect of warm browns and creams. The fleece locks can vary in length from a few 6cm up to 15cm and can be tight curls to a plush dense texture.  Learn more about Jacob Sheep from the Jacob Sheep Society.

Fleece

The sheep must be shorn every summer to keep the sheep cool and help prevent blow fly strike.  I buy quality fleece from pet sheep owners and use a process called wet felting to felt a backing. As a result it is similar to a sheepskin rug, but far better for the sheep!

Because the sheep live outside all year round, the item could contain tiny pieces of grass, it is impossible to get every tiny piece out.  It might initially shed a small amount of fleece.
