CHRISTOPHER SHEEP FARM

We raise sheep-primarily Montadale, Corriedale and Columbia breeds. These breeds differ from the majority of those raised in the eastern United States in that emphasis was placed on wool quality during their development. The wool is of a longer staple length, making the yarn stronger because of the increased overlapping of fibers. Because the fleece has a higher lustre, the yarn does also... Most of our yarns are custom spun at Harrisville, New Hampshire, using the woolen method of spinning.
