Fonty Cœur d’Angora yarn is made from 80% French angora rabbit hair, giving it an airy softness, exceptional comfort, and a light yet warm finish. A small proportion of merino wool completes the material, providing flexibility and hold.

Its airy texture is particularly suitable for delicate projects.

This yarn is used for the "Light and Soft Angora Beret Beanie" model, presented in our book Tricot d’une Parisienne (page 10, Bunka Editions, Japan). This model requires only one 25g ball.

MAKER <Fonty >
Fonty is a French spinning mill founded in 1880, which has remained independent and based in France. It is one of the few remaining traditional wool mills still in operation and has been awarded the "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant" (Living Heritage Company) label in recognition of its enduring craftsmanship.
DETAILS
This yarn combines the fineness of rabbit angora hair, sourced from French farms respecting the Angora Charter of France, and the suppleness of merino wool. Its carded structure highlights these high-quality natural fibers and offers a light, elegant and pleasant material to work with, faithful to the traditional know-how of the Fonty spinning mill.
