The very humble beginnings of a flock of sheep, Angora goats, Angora rabbits, and a room full of fiber processing equipment started as the gift of a drop spindle kit from my parents when I was 9. A simple gift but absolutely life changing. Now I love being able to introduce new spinners to the fiber world through our own drop spindle kits.💗 | 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”.

The baby Angora goats are currently the cutest creatures on the farm. It’s adorable how daintily they walk and nibble on their food compared to the sheep. Angora goats are a slow maturing breed, so they are staying little and cute for now, but someday they will catch up in size with the rest of our adult goats.💗 | Cedar Hill Fiber Farm

A closer look at each step of processing fiber into a finished item by clip: First is shearing Rupert the Angora goat. Stella the sheep is next, and then her being shorn. Stella’s wool needs skirted to remove the undesirable parts. The wool is scoured in a pot of hot water to remove the dirt and lanolin then rinsed and air dried outdoors. (Mohair is also cleaned in this way, but it is not shown here) Stella’s wool is a very fine wool, so it benefits from being hand combed first. Mohair from Ango

I’m going with horned poodle 🐩 If you know you know this is actually an angora goat! However they are CONSTANTLY being confused with other animals. Can you guess the most common one?? 🐑🐑🐑 That’s right. SHEEP. Just because they are fluffy does not make them a sheep. They also don’t produce wool. Their fiber is called mohair. It’s not fur, it’s actual hair. Now mohair and wool blend amazingly together for fiber arts such as socks - @shopcaprine 🧦 However we have been asked if they are a speci

The Giant Angora rabbits always appreciate a mid summer shearing. A rabbit as large as Daphne will produce around 8oz of fiber in a single shearing, and Angora is 7 times warmer than sheep’s wool. Because of this Angoras are quite heat sensitive and need to be monitored closely when kept outdoors. Some of the ways they keep cool or expanding blood vessels in their ears to dissipate heat or breathing quickly, similar to a dog panting.💗 | Cedar Hill Fiber Farm

Claudia -Cedar Hill Fiber Farm on Instagram: "I am often asked which I prefer more - sheep or goats - and the answer is usually the Angora goats. While I love the sheep and have many very friendly ones, the Angoras are much more personable. A benefit to this is they don’t mind being handled separately as much for tasks like shearing, while the sheep feel safest in the company of other sheep. The downside to the friendliness is I can’t get anything done in the pasture without a few goats “helping

While I chose not to keep exact track of the time spent, I was able to estimate how long each process took to make my wedding dress from a sheep (and Angora goat). To break it down… Shearing Agnes and Timothy - 1 hour Sorting and scouring the fleeces - 4 hours Combing and blending the fibers - 24 hours Spinning the dress and veil thread - 60 hours Designing and prototyping - 50 hours Warping the loom - 15 hours Weaving - 10 hours Cutting the fabric - 3 hours Sewing - 15 hours Crocheting the veil

Kula Cottontail Farm on Instagram: "Angora rabbits are incredible little animals! They grow wool, just like a sheep only way softer and warmer, and they molt their wool coat about every 4 months. When they are molting the wool can be picked off them and spun into yarn. They’re my pets with benefits! #bunnies #bunny #bunniesofinstagram #rabbit #rabbitlove #angora #farm #farmlife #handmade #slowfashion"
