A sheep's coat that decided staying on the sheep was overrated.
means A skin from a recently shorn sheep or lamb, tanned with the wool still attached, used to make warm coats, boots, and rugs — or the soft fleecy material itself.
from From 'shear,' the act of clipping wool, plus '-ling,' an old English suffix meaning 'one belonging to' (as in 'yearling' or 'darling'). A shearling was originally a sheep that had been shorn just once — a young animal past its first haircut — and the word eventually slid from the animal to the prized pelt it provided.
