Soft Silk Mohair is Knitting for Olive's halo yarn: 70% kid mohair and 30% silk in a laceweight that's designed to be held alongside a base yarn to add warmth, softness, and a beautiful halo effect. The silk prevents the mohair from feeling scratchy and adds a subtle sheen, making the resulting fabric softer than most mohair blends. The colour range is extensive and coordinates closely with the broader Knitting for Olive palette, making colour matching straightforward. Can also be used as a standalone yarn for very fine, delicate projects with excellent drape, sheen and ethereal lightness.
bold, dramatic, and happiest in the spotlight
Soft silk mohair is a yarn that we would categorize as a diva. Some yarns are happy to support the pattern. This one prefers to be the star. Diva yarns bring luxurious fibres, bold colours, and textures that practically demand attention: perfect when you want your project to make an entrance.
Divas shine brightest when they’re given room to perform. Simple stitches and minimal colourwork let their character take the spotlight. They can handle more complicated patterns but rarely need them. Swatch carefully and follow laundering instructions to keep your star in top form.
