This is a delicate and delicious lightweight Mohair and silk Blend yarn. The mohair is, of course, its' beautiful light and airy self, but combined with the lustre and strength of silk, it becomes a different animal altogether. Gorgeous, not scratchy as pure mohair yarn, or mohair yarn blends can be, this is a wonderful yarn. And of course, it's handpainted by Artyarns - need we say more? handpainted and imported by Artyarns
