This slightly different yarn has fantastic yardage. It will lend itself to a wide variety of projects. It is either a heavy fingering or light sports weight, and will work well in many different garments. We were thinking of people who aren’t very fond of the fluffier aspects of mohair but love its strength and lustre when we had this yarn made, so it has a firm twist and no halo. It does not bloom after washing. It will work beautifully for elaborate, lacy or beaded projects as it allows for excellent stitch definition. And it Looks lovely in simple patterns too, try it in your favourite pair of socks for comfortable, durable footwear that wears well!

These skeins were spun using the fleeces from our yearling goats. Their fleeces were blended with wool for added memory to help your garments keep their shape.

Don’t forget that mohair lends itself especially well to dying, keeping its sheen while taking and holding dyes in clear vivid shades. This makes these skeins an excellent choice for hand-painted yarns.
