A "black sheep" sweater is naturally brown because the wool can not be dyed and retains the sheep's natural genetic color. In nature, a "black" sheep's fleece is rarely a solid, jet-black color. Instead, it naturally expresses itself as a very deep chocolate brown, charcoal, or reddish-brown. This is truly a stunning sweater!
Available in sizes Small through Extra Large. This unisex sweater is ideal for both a men or women. We suggest that women size down one size.
