The International Back to Back Wool Challenge has teams from all over the world participate - Australia, New Zealand, Scotland, Shetland Isles, USA, Canada, Ireland, Wales, Japan, Czech Republic, Republic of South African & The Netherlands.
Teams consist of a blade shearer, a sheep and seven handspinners & knitters. Team nominate time keepers, assessors & coordinators monitor each team competing at their own wool related venue. All teams follow the identical Challenge rules and pattern exactly as they are written.
The event was cancelled for 2020. Sisterhood Fibres has put together a team to take on the Challenge in 2021 and this is our first practice run.
