100% Kid Mohair Spinners Top. Undyed

This fibre is luxuriously soft, takes dye really well and has a great lustre. For spinning we recommend combining it with another fibre such as Merino or Alpaca as the Mohair fibre has smooth sides and will bind to these fibres.

It can also be used for felting and can make brilliantly  products. It can also be mixed with other natural fibres for this process to help hold the Mohair down better.

Key Mohair Fibre Characteristics

Mohair has many superior qualities to other natural fibres which is why it is labelled as a luxury fibre. It is also highly adaptable to different manufacturing processes and this combined with the superior qualities means there is a high demand for Mohair in all grades of thickness. The superior qualities are:

Lustre/sheen: Mohair has a natural lustre.

Warmth: Mohair is a great insulator (even when wet!) and it doesn’t conduct heat like wool ensuring excellent warming qualities.

Durability: Mohair is a non-crushing, non-matting, and non-pilling fibre and it is the most durable natural fibre in the world. Products made from Mohair last for years.

Comfort: Our products are made from the finest Kid Mohair making them luxuriously soft against the skin.

Lightweight: Mohair is a very lightweight fibre and it breathes very well allowing for lighter more practical clothing and blankets.
The superfine Kid Mohair and Kid Mohair are predominantly used for handknits, yarns and specialty products, young goat mohair is used mainly for yarns, blankets and high quality suits and Adult Mohair is used in high end fabrics and velour.
