The Barkers' rabbits

Pete & Janet Barker

We are a small producer in Llangammarch Wells of Angora yarn and knitted items, all from our own rabbits, blended with local sheep wool and hand spun by Janet or sent away for machine spinning for a finer yarn.

Angora is the very warm and super-soft fibre from the Angora rabbit. Unfortunately the majority of Angora fibre is imported from countries without good animal welfare standards so we aim to supply an ethical alternative.

At Ethical Angora we shear their woolly coats four times a year, they are not harmed in this process at all and you can be assured our bunnies are loved and well cared for.
