A Very Luxurious Yarn

This pure angora yarn is lovingly handspun in my home studio on my Louet S45.
The fiber is a fine combed Angora top with a staple (fiber) length of 3.5″. I have developed a technique for hand spinning this top that will incorporate more air and bounce giving a loftier and more fluffy  (semi woolen) yarn than a simple worsted preparation. At the same time this method will help to retain some of the best qualities of a worsted yarn such as strength and longevity and resistance to shedding.

Suggested Uses

Suitable for wearing next to the skin and perfect for knitting for baby. It would be lovely spun in a lace weight for a scarf or a lightweight shawl, in Sport, DK or Worsted weight for sweaters, hats and mitts, gloves, scarves, neck warmers, blankets or shawls.

Angora

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… More about Angora Rabbit Fiber

Care

Please use a gently wool wash such as “Soak”. The yarn or garment made from this yarn may be hand washed in lukewarm to cold water. Gently squeeze out excess moisture, roll in a towel to release more moisture and lay flat to dry away from direct heat and sun.[space]
