Product Description

THE STORY OF ANGORA YARN

Angora wool or Angora fiber refers to the downy coat produced by the Angora rabbit. While their names are similar, Angora fiber is distinct from mohair, which comes from the Angora goat. Angora fiber is also distinct from cashmere, which comes from the cashmere goat. Angora is known for its softness, thin fibers, and what knitters refer to as a halo (fluffiness). It is also known for its silky texture. It is much warmer and lighter than wool due to the hollow core of the angora fiber. It also gives them their characteristic floating feel.

Angora’s main distinguishing feature is its fluffy surface texture and its ultra soft touch but did you know that it is also one of the warmest natural fibers? So very soft…

Angora is often considered a luxurious yarn reflecting complexity of the harvesting process and small number of producers. Blending angora with other wool types not only diminishes the softness and fluffiness of a garment, but also cost. Yarns made for commercial knitting usually use 30-50% of angora. Angora rabbits produce fiber in a variety of colors: white, beige, brown, and grey, black.

Angora wool can be used in manu different ways. All sorts of apparel (e.g. angora wool sweaters, jackets, skirts, scarves) or home textile items (e.g. angora wool throws and blankets) can be made, knitting yarns produced, and it is also used for felting.
