[AlpacaTalk] Re: Spin-off questions.... My fiber is a mess!!! Can it be salvaged?

Sorry, I should have said what I have :)
It's black huacaya. And it's in clumps all ove the bed. I think
there are some larger sized ones, but I can't tell if it came from the
neck or legs or back. This is a first shearing for him, so they said
it was all prime and put it all in the same bag.
I can see that there are shorter areas and longer areas. Can I take
bunches that are sort of still together and submit them? I can see
where the cut ends are all hooked together still. But there arent too
many of them.
How clean does the fleece have to be? I know that I need to get the
hay flecks and any seed heads out, and also the small 'seconds' from
the shearer, but there are a lot of very small specks.... that really
show up on black!
thanks :O
