It’s time to harvest wool from my Satin Angora rabbit! Croissant 🥐 was born here on the homestead last year. I love her beautiful, buttery coat! Would y’all like to see a video of me spinning up her wool? #angorarabbit #homesteading #farmyarn #homesteadinglife #fiberarts #yarnspinning | Yarn and Thyme

Shearing Daphne is a pleasure because the fiber seems to melt away from my clippers. Each rabbit has a slightly different texture to their fiber, which is another reason why good breeding and genetics are so important. Overly cottony textured coats, for example, can be not only extremely prone to matting but difficult to shear as well. Sometimes if you are having a problem with your clippers not cutting through the Angora coats it’s time to look at the rabbit and not the shears.💗 | Cedar Hill F
