KIDMO SILK LACE: Approximately 50g/465 yards 72/28 superkid mohair/silk. This is a 2-ply laceweight yarn.
These were kettle-dyed a mottled combination of all the Cthulhu’s Kinky Boots colours sans red. Primarily a blend of navy, brown, green and grey but with bits of rust, violet, blue and orange. While they all share the same colours each hank is unique and due to the way I layer the colours when dyeing, each batch is a little different, too, some are darker and some are lighter.
Silky, hazy, strong, soft, warm! Kid mohair at its loveliest - use this held together with another base for a silky halo or by itself as an accent for interesting contrast in your work. Either way, it's a luxurious blend and a joy to knit (and pet!).
While this base readily sucks up dye, its texture doesn't allow for distinct speckling, so colourways are more mottled or variegated. Also, mohair does not gain much size with blocking so please keep that in mind when planning your project.
For a long, gorgeous life gently hand wash your garment in tepid water, shape a little while wet and lay flat to dry.
