Sandnes Garn Tynn Silk Mohair - 2ply
Sandnes Garn Tynn Silk Mohair – Mohair, Silk & Wool Blend
Tynn Silk Mohair is a soft and luxurious yarn spun from 57% mohair, 28% silk, and 15% wool. As the lighter version of Sandnes Garn’s popular Silk Mohair, this fine strand is exceptionally versatile. Used on its own in one or more strands, it creates airy, feather-light garments with a beautiful halo. When held together with other yarns, it adds both depth and strength, giving your projects a unique and sophisticated finish.
Mohair comes from the long, silky fibers of the Angora goat, renowned for softness and luster. A touch of wool adds elasticity and body, while silk lends strength and shine, holding the fibers together and enhancing the yarn’s durability. The result is a light, airy yarn with a soft, fluffy texture that brings both luxury and structure to your knitting.
A standout feature is that Tynn Silk Mohair is widely used in PetiteKnit’s designs, often paired with Sunday or Double Sunday to create her signature Scandinavian look – light, soft knits with a beautiful drape and halo.
