Satin Angora Article in Spin-Off

 

 

 

 

 

Satin Angora was accepted into the ARBA Standard of Perfection in 1987 during the convention at Portland.  For several years it was considered as a novelty and even until today it's still classified as "Rare Breed".   Over the years many breeders work hard in promoting Satin Angora, one of the early breeders who worked hard at promotion is Polly Holmes.   Polly was the editor of the NARBC newsletter Angora News in the late 80s to mid 90s, then she was three-term president of NARBC until 2000.   Here is an article she wrote for the Spin-Off magazine in 1994.  We are sharing it here as most of the contents are still relevant today.
