That is so sad! You deserve happiness and fine things. Cast on a new project, the most squishy yarn, fun notions and instruction books, some new skills and fiber friends with a class... Plus, this habit is much better for your teeth than crack.

Soft. Shiny. Fluffy. Basically the supermodel of yarns.

Isager Silk Mohair is a dreamy blend of 75% super kid mohair and 25% silk, which means it’s light as air, smooth as butter, and has just enough halo to make angels jealous.

It’s stunning on its own for simple, elegant pieces, but it really shines when paired with another yarn — like a loyal best friend who makes everyone look better in photos. Knit it together with something smooth to add that soft shimmer and luxurious fluff we all secretly want wrapped around us.

Now, a fair warning: this yarn sheds a bit. Think “gentle snowfall,” not “attack of the tumbleweeds.” It settles down over time, but maybe don’t wear it over your black pants on day one unless you’re going for the fuzzy chic look.

Perfect for projects that deserve a touch of glam — because Silk Mohair doesn’t just elevate your knitting… it practically levitates it.

Materials: 75% super kid mohair and 25% silk
Yardage: 212 m in 25g

Weight: Fingering

Yarn Care: Handwash (I never recommend machine washing - but this is what the Isager site says):

Wool should be washed by hand unless you have a washing machine that uses lukewarm water (below 28°  Celsius) and has a very gentle wool cycle. 

To avoid felting, please observe the following:
Use very little soap and use a wool mark approved detergent. Be careful to keep the same temperature during the entire washing and rinsing process (not above 28°Celsius). After washing and rinsing place the garment in a washing bag and spin it lightly in a washing machine. Then place the garment flat on towel and leave to dry. 

Woolen garments do not necessarily need washing very often. Airing outside in damp weather will often be sufficient. Yarns from cotton and yarns made from mixed fibres containing flax and bamboo could be washed in warm water, but still we recommend the same washing instructions as for wool. 

Spun and dyed in Italy
