Shrimp and Knits is your Fiber Holiday Headquarters — because nothing says ‘I care’ like a handmade gift and a little bit of panic.

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.

Lichen and Lace - Marsh Mohair
Lichen and Lace - Marsh Mohair

So fuzzy! So soft! So pretty! (Seriously, it’s like knitting with a cloud that had a makeover.) Marsh Mohair is a lace-weight blend of 64% kid mohair and 36% silk, which basically translates to “halo for days.”

Each 50g skein packs 459 yards—aka enough to keep you happily knitting while everyone else is still untangling their yarn. Use it solo for ethereal lightness, double it up for drama, or strand it with another yarn to give your project that dreamy, misty glow. 

Perfect for marling, layering, or just petting like the fiber-obsessed knitter you are.

Materials: 64% kid mohair and 36% silk
Weight: Lace
Yardage: 459 yards / 50 grams
Needles: 3.25mm - 5mm needles*
Gauge: 4-6 stitches per inch* 
Yarn Care: Hand wash

* Note: the Lichen and Lace website gives this information for Needles and Gauge (4-6 stitches per inch, 3.25mm - 5mm needles). However, for lace weight yarn, typical needle sizes range from US 000 to 1 (or 1.5 to 2.25 mm), and the gauge is often 33 stitches or more per inch, depending on the pattern and stitch structure. Shrimp and Knits strongly recommends making a swatch prior to casting on to ensure the stitch structure makes gauge and looks like you are hoping it will. Mohair does not frog well!
