Mohair is luxuriously soft and fluffy, giving a soft halo when knitted due to its long silky fibres which come from the Angora Goat…The goats are groomed “brushed”.unlike sheep which are sheared, the long soft hairs are then spun, cleansed, and dyed…Most mohair yarns have a composition added to it to give it strength,..The ultimate luxury is when it it blended with silk, giving the yarn a beautiful lustre.
