FAQ
Can I use Silky Mohair doubled or combine it with another yarn?
Yes, double-knitting adds extra volume; combining it with a basic cotton or merino yarn provides warmth and a soft, fluffy look.
A tingling sensation?
The mix of merino, Viscose, and Silk makes the yarn softer against the skin; try knitting a gauge swatch to see how it feels to you.
What Needle Size is this for?
Silky Mohair is often worked with relatively large needles to create a light, airy look; check the label and your pattern for the best size.
