Mohair

Add a touch of warmth to your projects with Malabrigo Mohair! From the texture, airiness, and depth of color, this is the base you won’t be able to live without. It's great for shawls and lightweight garments, and works well double-stranded, in color-work, and combined with other yarns. Yarn Weight: Lace Fiber Content: 72% Mohair, 28% Silk (halo, single ply) Amount: 229 yards (210 meters) / 25 grams Suggested Needle Size: US 3 - 8 (3.25-5mm) Suggested Hook Size: B-1 - E4 (2.0-3.5mm) Care: Hand wash, cold water, dry flat Sourced: South Africa (Mohair) kettle-dyed in Uruguay Per Malabrigo: be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot and skeins may vary from bag to bag. Skeins may vary one from the other even within the same bag. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball. The same formula is used each time but every batch of yarn may vary. The differences from one dye lot to another can be very subtle or extremely noticeable, especially on variegated yarns. After the quality control team checks the skeins, they go to the labeling section and then are put in bags of five or ten (depending on the yarn). The colors shown in the photos are illustrated as a reference, as mentioned above, they can differ on more or less of one tone, due to the hand-dyed process. photos © Malabrigo Yarn
