Mohair is the natural hair of the Angora Goat. These scarves are created in Mandela Bay, "The Mohair Capital of the World." They are easy to care for. Periodically hand wash in tepid water with a mild detergent. Let dirt soak out, do not agitate, hang to dry. Occasionally hand brush if "fluffy" texture is desired. The scarf can also be dry cleaned! These scarves are 17" by 71" in size.
