Stage 3: Plaisance to Turin

  • Type: Flat

France is home to some incredible sheep, including the tiny Ouessant, who have recently made a name for themselves in Paris, where they've landed a government job maintaining public lands. (Fancy urban sheep!)

One of our favorite breeds of French fiber to spin is Rambouillet. (I'd like to see the sheep that got the 1st place ribbon, if this glorious creature placed 2nd!)

How did Stage 3 go? Did you accomplish your first goal? Let us know in the comments!
