A stylish female with soft handling fleece and perfect conformation.  Sire is Peruvian K-2; Accoyo Arctic on the Dam’s side.

Kate's fleece is very fine while maintaining reasonable density - - and an impressive 9 crimps per inch.  Her 2006 micron test shows Kate with an 18.40 AFD at three years of age.

But Kate is also a 'Kingmaker' in that she makes large, perfectly proportioned offspring with fleece that tests 1-3 microns less than the sire at the same age.  That's a nice trait if you throw a male from a worthy sire.

Breeding Strategy:
Kate is an ultrafine that throws large offspring...these are good things.  Like most ultrafines, Kate could use more density, and thus a breeding to Gino, the atomic bomb of dense.  Her male offspring (Mushroom Cloud) already makes this strategy look like a huge success...Gino density and coverage with Kates super numbers.

Seems like that is worth trying again...
