I have a medium wool fleece, I think a Suffolk X that I got pretty cheap. It turns out to be too much prep for me to handle. It doesn’t seem to have lots of vm, but I tried washing it several times and it is still hanging on to the dirt, especially in the tips.
I then tried flicking it first and washing after, and it came pretty clean that way. It also comes out really clean if you comb it. I just don’t have the patience to flick the whole fleece before I wash it, or comb it all afterwards with my small hand combs. Pics here:

I have almost the whole fleece left I just tried to wash one batch of it. It was around 5 pounds when I bought it, so I’d say it is probably 3.5 or 4 now.
I’m asking $25 PPD or best offer for the whole fleece.
Please let me know through pm:)
