A Productive Group




Angora people are a productive group. It is not unusual to see the Angora breeders working on their craft after grooming is done. In the Lodi show a week ago, a few pictures were taken showing such activities.

At the top, Franco is showing off the Giant Angora x Alpaca scarf that he made from scratch: harvesting the wool, spinning into yarn and knitting into the scarf. He did a great job.

In the next two photos, Carol is spinning, Tracy is knitting, Lindsay is grooming and there is Lynn, a French Lop breeder, winding her Angora yarn she'd just purchased into a ball.

Sometimes we hear other breeders whining about being bored when waiting for the rabbits to be called to the show table or waiting for the Best In Show judging. Well, Angora breeders are never bored, there are too many things we do in shows and there is just too much fun.
