Could that much wool come off of one Rabbit?
Buried in a sea of wool.
GC Shepherds Sweet Pea finally had her big haircut. She has been growing her coat for a full year. There was never a coat molted out. Even I was surprised at how much coat came off of this one rabbit. Her density and even, non-molting coat must have been her winning ticket to the two Best in Show and one Reserve in Show wins. Her sisters and brother held their coats for a long time and her one brother even won two BOS with his second coat. That doesn't happen very often in the English Angora world. I have had very few angoras to win with a grow back coat. GC Shepherds Aphroditi won two BOB with her second coat going on to complete her grand champion title. She is the only one I can think remember at the moment. Can't wait to see Miss Sweet Pea's coat spun up and knitted (by someone other then me:-) into something very beautiful.

That has got to be enough wool for a hat, scarf and mitten set! With her beautiful coat, Sweet Pea's wool should spin into some lovely yarn. I'd go for something you can pair with your lucky "Sullivan" scarf. Double the luck!
