All wool is useful for something.
Downy Suffolk and Dorset wool makes wonderful quilt batts to keep you warm on a sub-zero night. Soft wonderful Shetland fleeces provide yarn for lovely sweaters and other cozy wearing apparel. On the double coated, truly primitive Shetland fleeces, they can be spun as they are or separated and the outer coarser coat used for hardy project and the soft undercoat for garments you can wear next to the skin.
