How is Mohair Yarn Made?
Mohair yarn is famous for its insulating properties, softness, and distinctive appearance. Many people are curious about how it is made, as the process of yarn making can seem rather mysterious to people who have not participated. The short version of the story is that mohair is made like all other yarns: by harvesting fibers, cleaning them, combing them so that they are aligned in the same direction, and then spinning them into yarn which can vary in thickness and texture, depending on how the spinning is handled.
