Super Kid Mohair Yarn, ILARIA AURORA, Luxury Italian Lace Weight Yarn, Balls or Cones, 1000m/100g

AURORA is one of the finest and most versatile Super Kid Mohair yarns I have worked with. At an impressive 1000m per 100g, it offers extraordinary yardage, exceptional softness, and the elegant halo that knitters expect from premium Italian mohair. If you enjoy creating lightweight luxury garments, adding softness to other yarns, or achieving that beautiful designer-style halo seen in high-end knitwear, AURORA is exactly the type of yarn that deserves attention. What makes AURORA especially useful is its flexibility. It can be used alone for delicate, ethereal fabrics, held double for more substantial garments, or paired with merino, cashmere, silk, alpaca, and other fibers to add warmth, softness, loft, and visual depth. The result is fabric that feels remarkably light while providing the softness and atmosphere that only premium Super Kid Mohair can create. ▣ Product Specifications • Manufacturer: Ilaria, Italy • Article: AURORA 100 • Fiber Content: 67% Superkid Mohair, 30% Polyamide, 3% Extra Fine Merino • Yarn Weight: Lace / Extra Fine • Count (Nm): 10/0 • Yardage: 100g (3.52oz) ≈ 1000m (1094yd) • Formats: Balls (BY DEFAULT) or Cones (PLEASE PURCHASE) • Origin: Made in Italy ⌁ Texture & Feel AURORA features a soft, airy structure with a fine, elegant halo.

Its mohair halo gives textiles a soft, glowing surface and gentle drape. • Single strand — creates extremely light, open, ethereal cloth • Double strands — fuller, softly haloed fabric with better stability • Blending with silk or fine merino warps — recommended for structure • Works best paired with strong, smooth fibers in the warp (silk, merino, tightly spun wool) Suggested Sett (EPI): 8–14, depending on strand count and desired openness. Not recommended for warp unless reinforced with a stronger companion yarn due to mohair’s delicate, airy structure. ⚑ Care Instructions • Hand wash gently in cold water • Use mild wool detergent • Do not wring; press out excess water gently • Lay flat to dry and reshape while damp • Mohair halo softens and blooms after washing
