Cob: RE: Insulating in cold climates

[Chuck & Linda]

Julie,

Fleeces are nice, I would sure like to sit on one versus putting them in my
walls.
Is there a reason you don't want to build with strawbales and cob all around
them?
I live in Wisconsin and I try to talk anyone out of just a cob home.

Chuck

Hi.  I live in Canada too.  What's everyone's feelings about insulating
with sheep fleece? (presuming you can aquire it at a decent price).  How
would one go about incorporating sheep fleece insulation into a cobhouse
design? Would you need to go as far as an inner and outer wall?
