Rugged - thistledown - brushed mohair and silk laceweight


Add silky texture to your knitting with this lovely laceweight. Held double with DK or fingering, these mohair yarns are simple enough to work with, and bring a beautiful halo to your finished knit! 

Many current shawl patterns are incorporating openwork sections of this style of yarn, or you could get really daring, and try two-color mohair brioche! 

70/30 Kid Mohair Silk 

50 grams 

458 yards 

technically a laceweight, though often worked up on larger needles, like when using fingering on a size 7 

I sampled brushed mohair yarns from every source I could find once I decided to bring in this base for 2018, because I, for one, am extremely anti-itchy yarn!! This was the softest kid mohair I laid my hands on, and I knew it had to be the One! I hope you'll be just as pleased as I am with this specialty yarn.
