Shetland Fleece

Last week I washed and dried 4# 13 ounces of raw white Shetland fleece. I'm finishing carding up 8 ounces and I spun a bit of it. Ohhh! So soft and white! I can see why Shetland is such a sought after fiber. I'm going to dye the rest a navy so I can make my husband a vest or something simple for me to knit. I don't think I can do a whole sweater yet, but vest would work.
