A short encyclopedia entry defining mohair as the fleece of the Angora goat of Asia Minor and South Africa. It describes the fibre's qualities, typical yield per animal, and the fabric's light weight and lustre. It also mentions uses in pile fabrics such as plushes and astrakhans, in so-called camel's hair fabric, and in wigs and switches, and cites a USDA Farmers' Bulletin.
