Fluffy, fuzzy, luxury mohair yarn on cones for machine knitting, from Italy's premier mohair specialist.
Superkid mohair is from kid goats under 6 months old, making it finest, softest, silkiest and most luxurious mohair in the world. This is wrapped around a polymide and merino wool core, to make it strong enough for machine knitting. Like with most mohair you can wash and brush the knitting to release the fibres, resulting in a light, fluffy fabric.
Not the easiest yarn to use for a beginner, but once mastered this yarn can create the most beautiful lightweight garments and wraps. It is particularly special when knitted into loose, off-gauge ladder structures because the fluffy fibres maintain the openness of the knit. Or mixed with another yarn type to add its fluffiness to the knit fabric.
Sample photos show the Mohair Superkid Yarn and also it striped with our Feather Yarn and Wire Yarn.
