Ep 199 Leicester Longwool: Everything's Not Always Black and White
Listen now
Description
As we continue the Tartan & Tweed tour in the United Kingdom, Elara follows up last week's interview with Barry's partner Chris Sander. Chris takes Elara on a tour of the farm and their prized rams and ewes. Chris discusses the different colors of the Leicester Longwool and his affinity for the black color.   The group is getting ready for a couple of shows in Buck County and Dorset over the weekend. If you notice the picture of Chris, I believe they did fairly well. www.bbc.co.uk www.llsba.co.uk www.rbst.org.uk www.leicesterlongwool.org Support the show
