The Angora/Mohair goat was in existence in biblical times and valued for its fleece as a luxury fibre even then. The best Mohair was fabled to come from the Ankara region of what is now known as Turkey.
Mohair is known as "The Diamond Fiber" for its strength, softness and luster. It is a hair not a wool...Because it is a hair, it behaves as human hair does.
