Every now and then a yarn enters our lives that is positively swoon-able. This is certainly one of them. It's a classic boucle construction, made from a blend of Silk and Mohair. As such it has Mohair's glorious halo, and melting softness. This is a skein you'll want to just cuddle for a while before you make it into anything. It's a perfect knitting yarn for a super-soft textural piece. For weaving, we don't recommend something as halo-y and textural as this for the warp, but fill your weft with it for a heartbreakingly soft and fluffy piece.
