What is yarn made from muskox fur called?

A Ermine
B Qiviut
C Mohair

Muskoxen have a thick undercoat of soft fur called qiviut that’s spun into yarn. A heavy outer layer of guard wool repels moisture, so the inner coat stays warm and dry. Guess you can’t dress too warmly if you spend winters in the far north.

The correct answer is Qiviut.
