Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

Mohair is a fiber from the fleece of the Angora goat. It is used to make fabric that resists wrinkles, is very soft and lustrous, and is unequaled in its ability to retain rich colors. Mohair differs from sheep wool in that it is smooth and has less crimp. Mohair fibers are long, often reaching 1 foot, which makes them easier to weave and applicable to a wider range of uses.
