lambskin

Young sheep's hide

Lambskin is the skin of a lamb, especially when tanned with the wool still attached or processed into soft leather.

It's prized for clothing, gloves, and linings because of its suppleness: a lambskin jacket.

Lambskin also refers to parchment made from lamb hide, historically used for documents and bookbinding.
