Mohair is called “the noble fibre” and not for nothing. It has quite unique lustre, resilience and incredible colour shine. South Africa produces more than 50% of the global mohair supply. The country is also renowned for the best quality mohair fibre. South Africans farm angora goats “free-range style” in the Eastern Cape’s Karoo region. At the same time the industry body works hard to ensure that farming practices are sustainable. As a result the entire value chain is ethical and responsible, so you can feel really good about using this yarn because we know where it comes from and how it’s produced.

Cowgirl Blues Fluffy Mohair yarn blend launched recently. The luxurious blend of kid mohair and wool is light, airy and incredibly soft. It’s a lovely weight that they describe as double knitting-ish, and it’s versatile. You can knit or crochet it using a needle or hook ranging from 5-15mm depending on the effect you’re after. Make sure you knit it up loosely so that it can develop its full fluffiness. For a short pullover you only need 200g
