Lana Gatto Silk Mohair! Check out that lightweight fluffy construction of these vibrantly colored skeins! You guessed it, its made of 75% super kid mohair and 25% silk, each 25g skein is lace weight, so it'll last you 232yds/212m. Mohair projects are so plentiful, you can hold this yarn with a more elastic yarn to make an entire garment, use it by itself (and/or multiple strands!), or even use different colors! Dont forget to check out all of the color options available on our website or at our shop in Bellingham, WA. Some people have sensitivities to wool, and that can include mohair, just to ensure you get the best yarn for your project taste!
