Knitting for Olive Soft Silk Mohair is a luxurious blend of the finest Kid Mohair and Mulberry silk.

Our Mohair comes from angora goats bred in South Africa, and the yarn is also produced locally.  Our yarns are traceable back to the individual farms, which means we know exactly which farms, farmers, and goats our wool comes from.

Our Mohair is certified sustainable and RMS (Responsible Mohair Standard). The yarn is produced with high respect for animal wellbeing, and with social responsibility.  Our spinning mill follows ethical, technical and environmental standards, creating yarns free from harmful chemicals.

The Silk in our Soft Silk Mohair is cruelty free. The silk fibres are collected from cocoons after the chrysalises are allowed to mature into moths and escape. This means that the silk worms are not killed in the process as they are in conventional silk production.

If knit on its own, this yarn is a lace weight.  It is also perfectly suited to be a companion yarn to another strand.  It will add little in terms of thickness to the knitted gauge, but will add a gorgeous sheen and fluffiness to the finished product.

The yarn is STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified.
