from them? i.e. made from natural undyed black wool?

Years ago a friend had one made by his wife who spun and knitted the wool from their dark coloured Jacob ram. It looked good but when he walked
through the field wearing it the sheep would follow him
Phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
went on and on.
