Mohair yarns, incredibly soft

Mohair is a natural fibre obtained from the hair of Angora goats, native to Turkey. This fibre is characterised by its exceptional softness, natural shine and lightness. It is also known for its thermal insulation properties, being warm in winter and cool in summer.

Mohair is classified according to the age of the goat:

▷ Super Kid Mohair: Sourced from young goats, this is the finest and softest fibre, ideal for delicate garments.
▷ Kid Mohair: Sourced from goats up to one year old, it maintains high quality and softness.
▷ Young Goat Mohair: A slightly thicker fibre, suitable for a variety of garments.
▷ Adult Mohair: Thicker and more resistant, used in carpets and heavy fabrics.

We currently have the following product in our shop:

▷ GAZZAL – Super Kid Mohair

This yarn combines mohair with other fibres to offer a balanced blend that preserves the softness and shine of mohair, while improving durability and making knitted garments easier to care for.
