Named for the 21-micron softness of the yarn, Mohair 21 is a luxurious & sophisticated blend of superkid mohair & silk. Traditionally only found in haute couture, Lang Yarns has made this special fiber available for hand knitting. The gorgeous halo & soft sheen of the yarn makes it a lovely choice for elevated sweaters, cardigans & special accessories. The light, airy lace weight may be knit alone for floaty wraps & scarves, held double for a more substantial fabric or held with a favorite yarn to add softness, glow and/or gauge. The curated palette of confectionary hues has a color for every project. Trace the farm of origin by scanning the QR code on the ball band.
