Navajo-Churro Pelts

Navajo-Churro wool is classified as coarse and is composed of 3 distinct types of fiber.  The fleece has no defined crimp.  The inner coat measures 3-5" and the outer coat 6-12".  The fleece is long and shiny and comes in a variety of colors.  The lamb pelts will not have as defined an undercoat vs. outer coat in the fleece and are generally softer.
