This rich, deep Chocolate undyed raw angora wool features the classic self-color pattern: a very nice, deep chocolate brown overall. The undercolor fades to a pale dove grey toward the skin, creating subtle natural depth and softness as the coat lengthens. The coloring reminds me of mocha or vanilla chocolate swirl ice cream with its creamy fade and rich tones—pure, warm chocolate luxury straight from my doe, Gingerbread.

Harvest & Prep
Gently hand-pulled (with comb assistance when needed) during natural molting—no scissors or clippers! This careful, ethical method adapts to each harvest: hands for quicker sections when the new coat emerges, and a comb for comfort on my wrists while removing the loose shedding coat comfortably for the bunny. It preserves long, smooth fibers with tapered ends—ideal for luxurious spinning with great halo and gentler feel. Minimally cleaned post-harvest to remove loose bits—ready for your creativity.
Allergy & Sensitivity Note
Raw hand-pulled angora like this is often the gentlest option for sensitive folks—no sharp cut edges, and natural colored wool can feel extra soft with its subtle depth. True angora sensitivities are rare (more often from coarseness or processing), but test a small amount if unsure. Other natural or dyed options in the shop!
Care & Storage Notes
Store raw fiber in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain softness and prevent mustiness. To help deter moths, place cedar blocks or dried lavender nearby—I grow and sell dried lavender stalks here on the farm (perfect for making your own sachets, refillable bags, or using in large natural tea bags). They add a gentle, calming scent while naturally repelling pests (refresh every few months by squeezing). Keep in breathable bags or containers (avoid airtight plastic long-term unless vacuum-sealed briefly). If washing before processing, use cool water and mild soap gently. For finished yarns or items, gentle hand-wash cool—full tips in my guide: How To Clean Angora Wool Sweaters and Clothing.
Photos & Final Notes
The first photo is Gingerbread fully groomed to perfection, wearing a pretty multi-floral barrette in her bangs—looking like the sweetest little model! Remaining photos are on worn natural pine wood background (for rustic warmth that complements the deep chocolate tones) and white pelt (for clean contrast to show richness). Close-up shots focus purely on the wool to highlight the luxurious texture and subtle depth. A fun photo shows a tiny amount of wool in a miniature light real wicker basket sitting on the white pelt—creating a charming color contrast. Images may vary by screen/lighting, but they capture the true rich chocolate brown and soft dove-grey fade best.
The wool is packaged in zero-waste tissue paper for Eco-friendly shipping.
Message me anytime—I'm happy to chat bunny raising, farm life, natural dyeing experiments (my favorite creative playtime!), or whatever fiber fun you're up to! While my main focus is caring for the critters and growing things like lavender and dye plants, I love hearing your spinning, felting, or project ideas (customers often teach me new tricks too). Let's geek out together! 🐰🤍🧶
