Biches & Bûches - Le Gros Silk & Mohair
£18.75
We love this beautiful lighter than air DK weight mohair and silk blend. The colour palette compliments the Biches & Buches Le petit lambswool and cashmere so it's fantastic for combining yarns or using on its own.
The biches & buches le gros silk & mohair is the finest blend of 28% silk and 72% kid mohair from Italy.
The ball bands are handwritten by caroline.
The mohair comes from South Africa and the suppliers respect international agreements on the well-treatment of the goats.
This makes such a great substitute for a very light fabric otherwise intended for a DK or worsted weight wool.
