One finished.
A little wonky, I could make it even and nice and neat, but I'm not going to. 😊

Brushing out no. 2.

Again it will revert back to natural shaggy locks by getting wet.

And again some shaping into a capey mantle thingy to be done.

Can't decide if I should make one big one or two smaller (more of a collar size) ones 🤔
It's darker in real life.

Little bit of shaping and trimming to do, then done.

I've brushed this out to loosen some locks that got stuck in the backing and remove some stubborn vegetation, but it can be restored back to the lovely curly locks by getting it wet.

Hot water, soap, agitation, repeat.
Then roll up and roll backwards and forwards a couple of hundred times.

Phase four.
Cover back of fleece with a layer (not too thick, not too thin) of carded wool.

Pick out as much unwanted organic matter as possible.
Note...I will never get it all out.
