I went to the sheep shearing festival at a local historical site. There I got a whole fleece from one of their sheep for $10 (okay, if you count the admission for my husband and I to get into the place, it was $20 to get the fleece, plus the gas to drive there, but I think that's still a steal).
Had a great day watching sheep be sheared, and wool being washed, dyed and spun. Had a picnic lunch with friends, and it was generally a great day.
Naked sheep!
The fleece all bagged up and ready to go
