Perhaps the best thing to do would be to felt the angora into a large flat piece, get all the shrinking done and then cut it into thin strips and use that as weft in your weaving. There is a way (that I can't remember how to do) of sewing the ends together and folding that makes it easy to cut into a continues strip. Ann
Shepherds' Spring Farm North Gower On. Canada angora felts *extremely* easily. Even careful handling catches up with angora *fast* (moisture in the hand, soak washing, etc) unless I were blending it out HIGHLY (like at least 50% and I'd be happier with 30% range). You also will lose the loft of the fiber if you spin it enough to hold together for warp (and it would still be very delicate). Mixing (yarns) might also be problematic since angora's rate of shrinkage is very high! To stop mail temporarily mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: set nomail To restore send: set mail
