🐈🐈⬛💁♀️*The Turkish Angora is a breed of domestic cat. Turkish Angoras are one of the ancient, natural breeds of cat, having originated in central Anatolia (Ankara Province in modern-day Turkey). The breed has been documented as early as the 17th century. Outside the United States, the breed is usually referred to as simply the Angora or Ankara cat. These cats have slender and elegant bodies.👉

And yeah, I've seen urine used for various purposes, but not as a dye mordant... Not for the squeamish!
20 Natural Dye Plants You Can Forage and Grow in Your Garden
By Catherine Winter
Excerpt: "Would you prefer to go a super-natural route, since you’re using plant-based dyes? If you’re aiming to be as self-sufficient as possible, there are also all-organic mordant options as well.
Natural Mordants:
- Sumac: Simmer fresh sumac twigs for about an hour, strain out the twiggy bits, and reduce the liquid by half
- Urine: human urine is ideal for mordanting, but you’ll need to age it. Collect it in a jar and allow it to age for several days. [🤢 ]
- Salt: You can use standard table salt as a mordant, but Kosher salt can yield some of the strongest color-fastness. [I've used that]
- Vinegar [That too]
- Wood ash lye
"You’ve probably noticed that some of these are alkaline, and some are acidic. Alkaline mordants tend to work best with plant-based fibers like cotton, linen, and #hemp. In contrast, acidic mordants like vinegar are better with animal fibers like #wool, #alpaca, and #angora.
"Note that if you use an acidic mordant and your colors still run, you can set the color by dipping the fabric in a 50/50 vinegar/water solution. In contrast, if you’ve used an alkaline mordant like lye or baking soda [another one I've used], an acidic solution will strip the color rather than setting it." [Been there, done that!]

@megaphon Für #Veganer empfehle ich #Angora-#Kaninchen. Alle 3 Monate schälen, aus dem Fell schöne Klöße mit langen Ohren filzen und voila: Fortpflanzung durch Fellteilung.

For Giftmas, I treated myself to some Satin Angora fiber and some shiny new bobbins for my e-spinner.
The fiber's sheen is more subtle than I was expecting, but it was soooo soft and silky smooth to spin 😍
Today, the Girl Squad ™️ figured out they can jump into the hay bag, then they took a group nap
Today was a good day for buns
Just got home with two more bunnies - they're so precious 😍
The breeder named them Rosemary (left) and Juniper (right) which is super cute, but I think I might change them. Any name suggestions? 🤔
An hour and a half later - Geli has a really bad haircut, and I have 2oz of fiber!
I didn't do her face or her bum, but we both needed a break so I decided to finish that tomorrow.
For now, I've got to go clear out some bobbins and get to spinning!
