Mohair & Silk Yarn

Our mohair and silk yarn collection brings together two of nature's most functional fibers to create a material that is surprisingly strong despite its delicate appearance. By blending the airy, heat-trapping "halo" of mohair with the structural core of silk, these yarns provide exceptional warmth without adding weight. This combination is a staple for makers who want to create lightweight garments that feel steady and hold their shape over time.

Practical Ways to Work with Mohair & Silk:

• The "Holding Double" Method: One of the most effective ways to use this yarn is by carrying it alongside a sturdier base, like merino wool or cotton. This adds a soft, fuzzy texture and extra insulation to sweaters and cardigans, giving the fabric a multidimensional look without making it heavy.
• Strength and Drape: While mohair on its own can be fragile, the addition of silk provides a durable backbone. This ensures your projects—especially openwork lace shawls and airy tops—don't stretch out of shape and maintain a fluid, graceful drape.
• Natural Thermal Regulation: Both mohair and silk are excellent at managing moisture and temperature. This makes the blend a reliable choice for "all-season" pieces that keep you warm in the winter but remain breathable enough for cool spring evenings.

Whether you are using it as a standalone fiber for a translucent, cloud-like wrap or mixing it with other yarns to add texture, our mohair and silk selection is chosen for its quality and low-shedding properties. Explore our range of grounded neutrals and deep, saturated tones to find a dependable material that adds a professional, finished look to your handiwork.
