The mohair is not brushed but the singles construction allows the mohair fibres to bloom and form a delicate halo around the strand. It knits up into warm and lightweight items. Although technically a fingering weight yarn, you can also treat it like a thicker sport weight yarn, and knit on larger needles. This allows the mohair fibres more room to bloom and reach their full fuzzy potential. It is delightful worked up into lightweight shawls, cardigans, hats and cowls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis yarn is extremely soft because of the extrafine merino and superkid mohair we use. The softness of mohair is the main determining factor of its quality. Superkid mohair is from the first shearing and these are the softest and finest fibres the mohair goats will ever produce. The second shearing is usually called kid mohair and is still of fine quality, but is not as soft as superkid mohair.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe main factor determining the quality of merino wool is also its softness which depends upon the fineness of the fibres. We use extrafine merino (19.5 microns) which is some of the finest commercially available for hand dyers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecommended Needle Size: 2.5 - 4mm needles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGauge (stocking stitch): 28sts x 36 rows over 10cm\/4 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eon 3.25mm (US 3) needles\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe accent 'mini fluffers', which create the flower motif are Suri Alpaca \/ Silk, laceweight yarn: 20g, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e74% brushed Baby Suri Alpaca, 26% Mulberry Silk, 120 metres per 20g hank (equivalent to 600m per 100g)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe accent 4ply minis are Merino \/ Nylon 75\/25, 20g, 85m.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSome sets are available on pre-order, when stock is low; these will be dyed and sent within 2 working weeks. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-dyed using professional acid dyes; no two skeins are completely identical due to the nature of this process, though they are dyed in batches. \u003cbr\u003eEvery attempt has been made to wash any residual dye from the yarn, however a little may remain; especially with dark or vivid colours, so I recommend to hand wash separately.
