Orkney Angora Wrist Warmers
Seven-inch treats fit your wrist to cover the gap between your gloves & your coat. They are also perfect for any time you feel a chill, & they're especially nice if you suffer from arthritis. They can be folded over for twice the warmth, too! New colors coming this spring, sign up to be notified as soon as we have them.....
Fiber Content: 50% angora, 50% lambswool.
The Fawn, Navy and Light Bottle Green have different fiber content:46% angora 37% wool 9% polyamide 8% elastan.
We recommend hand washing these in cold or cool water. Roll in a towel to remove excess moisture and reshape before drying flat.
Soft and silky, angora fiber has a fluffy halo and hollow fibers that create a fantastic thermal wool. Its super cozy properties can be beneficial for arthritis and other cold-induced aches and pains. Angora fiber can only be produced by Angora rabbits (Angora goats produce mohair) and grooming their fur is a necessary part of their health care, they can get hairballs just like cats! There are some great facts about angora wool on its page for the 2009 International Year of Natural Fibers.
Additional Info:
Made by a family-run business in one of Orkney's northernmost isles. We are assured the rabbits are shorn safely & live happy, healthy lives free of hardship. Due to the hand dyed factor, color imperfections are possible.
Label: Orkney Angora
Thank you so much for the bride and groom cats you drew on the order for my cousin and his (now) wife. Not only did they love the socks, the kitty couple art work is now framed and hanging in their home.
