Silk Mohair

I am amazed at how such fine yarn can transform basic homespun wool yarn into something so soft. I used the yarn I made for a sweater and then used some more for a hat, but this time with the Isager silk mohair. I wouldn't recognise it as the same yarn. It's so soft, but still shows the stitch definition. I will be buying more in the future.

So soft. Love the halo. I have been accused of needing mohair in every item I knit. That's good, right? It was a bit of a challenge to use this yarn as a single, but am accustomed to the thread-like silk with the lovely mohair fluff. Beautiful, lots of colors choices, and no shedding.

I used this to double knit with Malabrigo Washted and it is turning out to be the softest, warmest cloud sweater in the world. I cannot wait to wear it.

Lovely yarn! I use this to double knit with other lace weight or single ply yarns to add a bit of softness. It's just barely there but enough to give my work a texture I am looking for.
