This research was carried out to investigate fleece yield and characteristics of Karadi sheep in Hasar village of Kirkuk/Iraq. Sixty two ewes and four rams were used in this study. Greasy fleece yield (GFY), breaking strength (BS), fiber elasticity (FE), fiber diameter (FD), fiber length (FL) and clean fleece percentage (CFP) and effects of some environmental factors on the these characteristics have been also studied. Least squares mean for body weight at shearing (BWS), GFY, BS, FE, FD, FL and CFP were 52.28 kg, 1.65 kg, 21.74 cN/tex, 31.58 %, 36.10 µm, 18.33 cm and 67.98 %, respectively. Effects of ewe age on BS, FE and CFP was statistically significant (P<0.05), but on the other characteristics were not significant. The effect of BWS was statistically insignificant on all characters. From sortiman value (44'S) calculated, it was concluded that Karadi breed could be evaluated in the class of carpet wool fleece sheep.
