Angora Jersey Fabric

Angora Jersey Fabric by the Metre

Angora jersey fabric is a knitted fabric with a soft, fluffy surface that looks and feels remarkably close to real angora wool. It's made from acrylic with polyamide, which keeps the fabric warm without the delicate care that genuine angora demands. You order it by the metre, so you decide exactly how much you need for a cardigan, a skirt or a full dress. The fabric works well for autumn and winter garments where you want a cosy feel without extra bulk.

What makes this jersey fabric distinctive

The fibre blend gives angora jersey its characteristic fluffy texture. Fine acrylic fibres sit on the surface of the knit, creating that fuzzy halo effect you'd expect from real angora, while the polyamide adds strength and shape retention. The result is a fabric with a soft hand feel that stays warm yet remains breathable enough for indoor wear. Because it's knitted rather than woven, the fabric has natural stretch and drapes softly around the body instead of standing stiff.

Care and durability

Unlike genuine angora, this fabric is easy to wash and doesn't require special detergents or hand washing routines. It holds up to regular use and doesn't pill as quickly as some other fluffy knits. That makes it a practical choice for garments you'll wear often through the colder months, not just occasional statement pieces.

What to sew with angora jersey fabric

This fabric suits a range of winter garments. Common projects include:

• Cardigans and open-front knits
• Skirts with a soft, warm lining feel
• Dresses for cooler seasons
• Tops and pullovers

If you're looking for other textured or structured fabrics to combine with your angora projects, our range of boucle fabric offers a similar cosy texture with a woven structure, while cotton twill fabric works well for lining or contrast panels. For outerwear layers, boiled wool fabric is a sturdier alternative with its own warmth properties.

Ordering angora jersey fabric per metre
