Hi Folks,

I have recently aquired a couple of Shetland fleeces .  This is a new
experience for me, I've never had a Shetland fleece before.   One of
them has two very distinct coats, with the longest fibers also being the
coarsest and the darkest in color.  I have read passing references to
combs being used to separate the 2 coats, and I wondered if anyone could
help me with this.  I'd like to get the softer uncercoat seperated from
the coarser darker stuff.  I've tried just gripping the lock at the
base, and pulling the tips out of the lock, but there is only a small
difference in the lengths of the 2 types of wool, so I am missing at
least half of the coarse wool.  Help!
