Hide, Lambskin

Young sheep pelt with wool; light, dyes well; pliant warm leather. Price is for one whole skin.

A young sheep’s pelt—soft, light, and still bearing its wool—salted whole for the tanners and clothiers. Shepherds trade lambskins seasonally after spring shearing and autumn culling. The fine hair takes dye well, and when tanned, the leather is pliant and warm.
