We started building an Angora goat herd in 2014. We bought goats from all over New Zealand in order to combine a variety of genetics.
With meticulous selective breeding over the last decade we managed to build a herd of good quality, award winning animals, showing major improvements in mohair characteristics and animal size. However, good breeding only contributes to around a third to the quality of the fibre.
The remaining two thirds are attributed to the health and general well-being of the animal. Our animals are well fed and taken care of, and in return they reward us with exquisite, award winning fleeces, which we then use to produce a variety of products for the craft industry.
“I bought several yarns from this seller of different colours. They arrived in decent time from NZ and were really well packaged. I liked that there was no excess packaging and well protected from the weather if they had got wet in transit, which can sometimes happen. Lovely colours and true to
the photos. Will be seeking them out next time I am in NZ”
“Lovely 4ply knit, feels very silky and soft. Amazing colour payoff, photos really don't do them justice”
“Could not be happier. I've worked with a lot of mohair, this is the finest quality I've ever used. Thank You, Veronica!”
“First time knitting with mohair and using the Ad Maiora 3ply to make an Elizabeth Nihoniho sweater.
I'm using 3.5mm and 4.00mm needles so slightly bigger than the recommended needles. The yarn is bouncy and incredibly soft and light. It has a halo similar to a kidsilk or possum yarn. I can't wait to finish my sweater as I think it will be warm but importantly, really light. The 'nuts about you' colourway is amazing, so autumnal and I really love it. I would buy this yarn again”
“Beautiful yarn. The colour is fantastic and so soft. Wonderful”
“Great quality and beautiful texture, will buy again in the future”
“This is the most beautiful yarn with an amazing sheen and lustre. The quality is exceptional, and the colours are to die for. This is for the serious yarn connoisseur!”
“Love this yarn and recommend to all knitters”
“Brilliant colours, can't wait to knit this up”
“Returning customer. Love this product”
