ONLY 1 FLEECE REMAINING FOR SALE!
I currently have some beautiful angora fleeces from my French Angora rabbits that I am offering for sale. All the fleeces were heavily sorted (unless specified otherwise) and should be very clean with minimal webbing, second cuts, or felting. The fleeces are very suitable for spinning as is, blending with other fibers, or using for wet or needle felting projects. Angora fiber is very lightweight compared to other animal fibers and it goes a long way in a project. The fibers spin well in a variety of yarn weights and can be spun on a drop spindle or wheel with ease. Please consider all weights approximate as we do not have a certified scale. I did my best to try to match the colors in the photos to the true colors of the fleeces but there may be slight variances. All prices include shipping within the United States.

Blue Fleece - 2
ounces, Price: $20 shipped - SOLD
Fleece color: Blue
(dark bluish gray tips fading to a lighter gray-blue)
Type: Clipped
Staple Length:
approximately 2-3”
Weight: approx. 2
ounces/57 grams
This fleece is the baby coat of my current buck,
Campanula. The fleece is heavily crimped
and silky smooth with minimal guard hairs as it is a baby coat. Good length and color for a baby fleece. I am offering the fleece as is so there may
be some shorter staple length of wool in it but most averages 2-3”. Although this fleece could be spun by itself,
I would recommend blending it since it is shorter length (unless you have
previous experience spinning shorter fleeces).
Chestnut Fleece – 0.9
ounces, Price: $11 shipped - SOLD
Fleece color:
Chestnut (brownish blue tips fading to a grayish-white)
Type: Clipped
Staple Length:
approximately 2.5-3.5”
Weight: 0.9 ounces/26
grams
This fleece is a younger coat from my French Angora doe,
Mouse. It is silky soft, well crimped,
and spins beautifully. There are minimal
guard hairs in it so if you prefer less guard hairs then this fleece would be
ideal for you. Heavily sorted and any
seconds are removed. Would be wonderful
spun as is or blended with another fiber.
Broken Black Fleece –
1.7 ounces, Price: $19 shipped
Fleece color: black
and white (pure white sections of fleece and black tipped sections fading to
dark gray)
Type: Clipped
Staple Length:
approximately 3-4”
Weight: 1.7 ounces/49
grams
This fleece came from Reflection, a gorgeous black and white
(spotted) angora doe I had. The color
and texture of this fleece is amazing.
There are “black” and white sections to the coat which could be
separated and spun separately or both colors could be blended for a lovely
variegated yarn. There are more guard
hairs in this fleece but if desired, they could easily be removed by grasping
the guard hairs and pulling them out gently while holding onto the bottom
portion of the fleece staple. Heavily
sorted so there are minimal seconds in it.
This fleece would be very nice spun as is or blended with another
fiber.
If you have any questions or are interested in a fleece
please send me an email. At this point I can only accept
checks or money order on fleeces that require shipping. Thank you for your interest!
