So rich and soft. After I washed and racked this hide I walked away for awhile to let it dry. When I returned, I was so pleasantly surprised to see how velvet-y the fibers look and feel. Nice mid-length fibers make this an amazing crafting hide (though I would personally struggle to cut into this one) or an excellent sit mat/sleeping pad. There is a small bald spot which I couldn’t find a second time to photograph, but that imperfection is reflected in the price. This sheepskin was bark-tanned with love and devotion by me. 51”x31”
When measuring, I measured down the middle for both length and width. Some parts of the hide will be longer and some will be shorter. I measured the leather side. Fiber often extends beyond the leather.
I live with dogs, so please consider that if you are extremely allergic. These hides will become softer with time and use. I wash and comb these sheepskins multiple times, but you will still find pieces of organic matter in them once in a while—it’s impossible to get it all out! They will also smell like lanolin to some degree or another, which not everyone is used to. You can wash them sparingly (if you’d like more info on this, check out my faq). If you ever decide you don’t want this hide, please compost it or leave it to decay into the woods—don’t throw it in a landfill!
