Indulge in true local luxury with our locally sourced mohair silk yarn- an ultra-delicate lace-weight blend of Superkid Mohair and Mulberry Silk. Each yarn ball is 25 grams with a generous 840 metres in length. Yarns are sold in packs of two of the same colour. Renowned for its unmatched lustre, vibrant colour depth, exquisite softness, and featherlight feel, this is the most sought-after mohair yarn in the world. With most of the world's mohair originating from our region in South Africa, this yarn is a global favourite among knitters and a proud staple for any local creative. An incredibly versatile yarn suited for delicate lace work or chunkier knits when knitted with multiple ends held together. It can also be held together alongside a smooth yarn like a merino or cotton to add a luxuriously gentle haze or colour to a fabric.

Please note due to the nature of the dyeing process, dyelots will have variation. It is important to knit a garment from the same dye lot. Colours may look different on screen. 

Colours in stock are available for immediate shipment.
