The sheep Gr\u00e5an was their only grey sheep and I was\u00a0very thankful to be able to buy so much of it. But the weather was really wet up there in shearing season, so the owner couldn\u2019t shear the sheep for weeks. That is\u00a0slow fashion, literally.<\/p>\n<h2>The leading fleeces<\/h2>\n<p>The two fleeces are quite different. The finewool fleece is springy and fluffy and perfect for carding and long draw spinning. The J\u00e4mtland fleece has a really long staple of very fine fibers and ideal for combing and short forward draft. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/J\u00e4mtlandsf\u00e5ret-677743648942195\/\">J\u00e4mtland sheep<\/a> is a quite new Swedish breed, bred to be a domestic alternative to merino wool shipped from the other end of the world.<\/p>\n<h2>Video making<\/h2>\n<p>The shearing part was shot in a simple sheep shed, but the all the rest of the clips were filmed outdoors. There are so many possibilities when filming outside, and there\u2019s no clutter to consider. Most of the shots were filmed around our home in Stockholm and at \u00c5sebol sheep farm. Some shots are from Austria and the very last piece is from Bressay, Shetland at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/shetlandwoolweek\/?hc_ref=PAGES_TIMELINE\">Shetland wool week<\/a>. I shot the sheep parts and my family and a few friends patiently filmed all the parts with me in front of the camera, which were quite many. My brother-in-law arranged and played the beautiful piano piece.<\/p>\n<p>One of the hardest parts of filming was the sheep shots at \u00c5sebol. I wanted some closeups and preferably some cuddling shots. But the sheep were not interested at all, as soon as we, very gently, got into the pasture, they went in the other direction. On our last day we cheated and brought the owner with some sheep goodies and they came running and I could eventually leave happy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_93\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-93\" style=\"width: 543px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"93\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/slow-fashion-from-sheep-to-sweater\/fullsizerender-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/FullSizeRender-1.jpg?fit=543%2C538&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"543,538\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"FullSizeRender\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/FullSizeRender-1.jpg?fit=525%2C520&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-93 size-full\" title=\"Josefin Waltin cuddling with a sheep\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/FullSizeRender-1.jpg?resize=525%2C520&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Josefin Waltin cuddling with a sheep\" width=\"525\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/FullSizeRender-1.jpg?w=543&amp;ssl=1 543w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/FullSizeRender-1.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/FullSizeRender-1.jpg?resize=300%2C297&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/FullSizeRender-1.jpg?resize=100%2C100&amp;ssl=1 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-93\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Finally some sheep cuddling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Not just another video<\/h2>\n<p>I wrote in the beginning of this post that\u00a0the project began as an idea of showing the whole process.
