Just as wool comes from a sheep's coat, mohair comes from the hair of the Angora goat. Just like wool it is made into yarn, and is one of the oldest textiles used by human beings.
There is also a kind of canvas similar to the denim in jeans and used on the roofs of convertible cars. This is also called mohair but is not the same as the goat wool described above.

Where is MOHAIR found?
Mohair comes from the Angora goat and is one of the oldest fibers in use today. It is considered luxurious along with other well known fibers like silk, and cashmire. It is warm in the winter and cool in the summer and is often used in combination with other fibers. These fabric "blends" are created because many people suffer allergic reactions to the Mohair fiber. Mohair should not be confused with Angora wool which comes from an angora rabbit, but will sometimes be incorrectly called mohair.
