Here’s a look at the angora goat shearing process #Angora #AngoraGoats #Mohair #Shearing #Ranch #KeepRanchin | Bar 7 Ranch

All the way from Rupert the Angora goat to finished yarn. Mohair is such a luscious fiber, and it blends perfectly with this plum colored wool.💗 | Cedar Hill Fiber Farm

Our goats are colored angora goats and are often confused for sheep due to their woolly appearance. However they do not produce wool (sheep fiber) and they do not produce angora (rabbit fiber) as the name may imply. Their specialty is producing mohair. Yes you read that right. All that hair is called mohair. And even if you’ve never “heard” of mohair before, I guarantee you actually have heard of it and/or seen it. Listen closely to the chorus in the famous Elton John song “Bennie and the Jets”.
