Make Me Rainbows on Kid Mohair Silk Day 12: Light and Lofty – Kid Mohair Silk Lace We’ve reached the grand finale of our 12 Days of Skeins! For the twelfth and final day, we’re talking about our luxurious Kid Mohair Silk Lace —a yarn that embodies elegance and softness. This lace-weight base combines the finest kid mohair fibres with shimmering silk, creating a yarn that’s light as a feather yet rich in texture and drape. Whether used alone for delicate lacework or held double with other yarns to add depth and a soft halo, this base transforms any project into a masterpiece. Mohair goats, or angora goats, are like the rock stars of the fibre world—fabulous, a little wild, and always dressed to impress with their flowing, silky locks. But don’t be fooled by their diva-like appearance—these goats are hardy, determined, and know how to grow some of the softest, shiniest fibres on the planet. 🐐 picture credit: HomesteadontheRange.com What makes it special: We know that mohair comes from angora goats, but did you know that kid mohair actually comes from the belly of young angora goats, an area that can only be shorn twice a year? The yarn spun with these fibres are not only soft but incredibly lightweight, warm, and durable, making them a favourite for luxurious yarns. The addition of silk elevates this base even further, adding a luminous sheen, incredible strength, and enhancing the drape of finished projects. Together, this blend creates a yarn that is as functional as it is stunning, perfect for heirloom-quality pieces. Why we love it: Airy softness : The kid mohair lends a fluffy halo that’s irresistibly light and delicate. Silken luxury : Silk adds a luminous sheen, enhancing both the beauty and strength of the yarn. Perfect for layering : Whether you’re holding it double with other bases or using it solo, it creates beautifully textured, sophisticated pieces. Drape and elegance : Ideal for shawls, scarves, and lightweight garments, it brings a sense of refinement to your wardrobe. Great for summer: The fine yarn creates a lightweight, resilient fabric with an open weave that promotes airflow, keeping you cool in warmer months. The looser weave also resists wrinkles, combining the coolness of linen with the crisp tailoring of traditional wool—making it the ultimate summer cloth.
