Very Fluffy French Angora Yarn



Uptown Girl looks very pretty, very hard to realize that she is almost 5 years old.  One of the signs of getting older is the wool getting more hairy.   All animals whether rabbits or sheep or goats all get more hairy as they age.   


This wool shows lots of guard hairs that are very shiny and with intense color.





This is the one ply yarn from Uptown Girl's wool on the bobbin.   Look at the fluff!



After plying with a binding thread, we can still see the fluff on this yarn.   



A close up of this French Angora yarn shows the underwool that is lighter in color while the guard hairs fluffing out is very intense in color.
