Fibre Processing | Shearing

The shearing patterns and techniques described in this section of the site are not exhaustive and do not intend to be a reference for professional shearing. What they do describe, however, are the basic ways in which fleeces are removed (and graded) for fibre production.

Please choose from any of the following:

Alpaca | Llama | Mohair | Sheep


Also, click here for a free, downloadable PDF of our booklet [360kb], This Little Fleece Went to Market: Shearing and Fibre Preparation, which is a guide to shearing and preparing your fleece for fibre processing.

If you would like a list of shearers available, please click here. If you have shearers who specialize in shearing for fibre production (anywhere in the world), please email us. We'd be delighted to add them to our list.
