The crazy-soft halo of this yarn leaves people a bit speechless. If angels were disguised as yarn, this would be the one. Not much of a disguise... The mohair "fluff" is long and regular giving the resulting fabric loft, warmth and luxurious softness. When knit with large needles, a little of this yarn goes a long way. This lovely mohair takes colour beautifully. The halo softens the colour somewhat, so if you're pairing it with a lustrous yarn (like #10-007) expect the mohair's colour to be a wee bit softer.

All our colours are hand-dyed; slight variations are expected and add to the charm of these yarns.
