For a wonderful description of Pygora fiber, check out these articles by Carol Huebscher Rhoades, in the “Spin-Off Fall 2008” magazine. [Fiber Basics: Pygora; Plush Pygora Scarf]
Check out these two patterns on Ravelry designed especially for Pygora yarn!
Crescent Leaves by Patty Boldenow, and A Simple Wrap by Grace McEwen.
Below are photos of knitted, crocheted and felted projects made with our Fiat Lux Fibers‘ home grown Pygora fiber. Raw fleeces were professionally dehaired and spun by Morning Sun Fiber Barn. Felting was done with the “waste” fiber that comes off during the dehairing process. To see more projects, or details regarding patterns, needles, and yardage, check out my Ravelry notebook.

FELTING

Felted Pygora side view. Designed and needle felted by J Strader, from non-premium grade Pygora fiber.
I’m in love with the fiber already, so beautiful and lofty. I love the slippers and needle felted goat. The shawl is divine. I think the edge really makes it.

Thanks, Emma! It’s a unique fiber and fun to work with – unless you try “frogging”…
