Goat grease...Yah, mohair... goatish revenge I say.<br /><br />Goat grease is actually more like a wax and takes extremly high temperature water (nigh unto boiling) and detergent to get out. I would not actually boil it, but durn near to it for the detergent wash and as near to the same temperature for the rinse. Mohair can take lot more abuse than wool of the same diameter. But, as you say, Lincoln and even Cotswold will give you the same look in the yarn. Not quite the same "halo" effect with wear as the mohair, but the lustre thing is definately in the longwools.Electric Shepherdesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13795801890394166135noreply@blogger.com
