MERINO & KID MOHAIR SILK — Ready-Made Yarn Mix

A soft, airy and exceptionally cosy yarn mix created from four fine strands:

• 3 strands of 100% extrafine merino wool;
• 1 strand of Kid Mohair on silk.

All four strands have already been combined into one ready-to-knit yarn. There is no need to work from several cones, choose a matching companion yarn or calculate the final yardage yourself.

Extrafine merino wool creates a soft, elastic and even base, while Kid Mohair on silk adds a delicate fluffy halo, lightness and a subtle luxurious sheen.

Despite its beautiful volume, the knitted fabric remains relatively lightweight, fluid and comfortable to wear. The yarn looks elegant even in simple stockinette stitch, enhances textured patterns and blooms beautifully after washing.

Cone format and pricing

The yarn is sold by the whole cone only.

The weight of each cone varies. Both smaller and larger cones may be available, and every colour and cone weight is listed as a separate product option.

The displayed price is for the entire cone of the selected weight — not for 100 g.

For example, if you select a 68 g option, you will receive the complete 68 g cone at the price displayed for that option. Partial cones are not sold and the yarn is not divided into smaller quantities.

Please check the selected colour, cone weight and corresponding price carefully before placing your order.

Care instructions

Gently hand wash at no more than 30°C / 86°F using a detergent suitable for wool and delicate fibres. Do not rub, wring or bleach. Reshape the garment and dry it flat on a horizontal surface.
