Here Is A Small Guide To Choosing Wool Fabrics
#TeachingTuesdays
In addition to wool, I recommend a smaller range of luxury fibers, finer and softer than fabric made of sheep’s wool. Here’re the most common types: Cashmere, a yarn spun from the hair of the Cashmere goat. Alpaca, silk and mohair (yarn from the hair of the Angora goat). There’s another luxurious fiber obtained from Vicuña, belonging to the same family as that of the Alpaca in the Andes. The extremely supple, soft and warm fibers can only be shorn from the animal once every few years; therefore, the resulting yarn is pretty much expensive.
