Harvest & Prep
Gently hand-pulled (with comb assistance when needed) during natural molting—no scissors or clippers used! This premium, ethical method adapts to each bunny's shed: hands for quicker sections when the new coat is emerging, and a comb for comfort on my wrists while removing the loose fiber. It preserves long, smooth fibers with tapered ends—ideal for spinning silky halo yarn, felting, or carding (hand or drum). Raw and uncarded, ready for your creative projects.
Allergy & Sensitivity Note
Hand-pulled angora like this is often gentler for sensitive skin, avoiding sharp cut edges that can sometimes irritate. True angora allergies are rare (usually tied to processing or coarser fibers), but test a small amount if you're new to it. Check my shop for other cut or dyed options!
Dye & Care Notes
Dye is non-toxic and well-set with multiple rinses, but as with many hand-dyed fibers (especially lighter shades), slight color bleeding can occur in the first wash (common and temporary). Always wash separately in cool water with mild soap or a vinegar rinse to set colors further.
