Let’s take a closer look at angora yarn, as it is one of the most expensive, making it wise to approach your selection thoughtfully. Experienced knitters confirm that angora yarn is definitely worth its price. Why?

• Economical to knit with. The yarn is lightweight because of the hollow structure of its fibers, meaning very little yarn is required for finished products. Often, 150-200 grams of angora yarn is enough to knit a warm, voluminous garment;
• Pleasant on the skin and completely non-irritating. Angora yarn is even used to knit children's garments. They turn out fluffy and incredibly soft;
• Warm yet breathable. Despite its excellent insulating properties, angora yarn allows your skin to breathe, so you won't sweat;
• Absorbs moisture effectively, providing excellent thermoregulation;
• 100% pure since angora rabbits' skin secretions do not contain oil.
