Mohair
The word mohair is of Arabic origin and means the best of the selected wool. Today, mohair is a wool made from the fleece of Angora goats, which has an incredibly durable fiber that ranks among the warmest natural fibers. However, a cooling fabric can also be made from this shiny, light, silky, luxurious-looking fiber. Mohair material is durable due to the strength of the fibers, which are also very flexible. Therefore, mohair does not crease, does not pull out and, unlike wool, is not felted, so it does not make lumps. It is also easy to maintain, because as an animal fiber it naturally repels dirt. The advantage of mohair is also its lightness.
Mohair justifiably supplies textiles for luxury. Ongoing research as well as the world's leading fashion houses clearly highlight the excellent quality and advantages of mohair not only as part of clothing textiles, but also home textiles. Different uses of mohair fiber are given by goat shear. The most luxurious so-called "kid" mohair is obtained from the first three staples. The goat mohair is used for knitting, the average mohair fiber of young goats is used for clothing textiles, while the strongest fiber of adult goats is used for upholstery and carpets.
