Which animal is best for spinning yarn?

March 19, 2010 by  
Filed under sheep yarn

I am learning how to spin my own yarn and I want to buy a goat, sheep, or alpaca so that I can make my own yarn. I know that different animals and breeds give different products, but I don’t know which one is more user friendly for a beginner. Maybe someone can tell me about the different animals and their ‘hair’. I have a lot of experience with animals and farming, just not with spinning yarn. Thanks so much!

    Alpaca is awesome! Their fur is so soft to begin with, and the yarn you can make to knit or felt with in incredible. And they don’t smell, like goats and sheep do…
