Lana Gatto Silk Mohair 30146 (Blu Elettrico) is an elegant Italian yarn in a rich indigo shade, combining the exceptional softness of fine mohair with the natural refinement of silk. The Blu Elettrico colour features deep blue tones with a subtle violet undertone, giving handmade knitwear a distinctive and expressive appearance. Its delicate halo of fluffy fibres creates a soft, airy surface that gently diffuses the colour and highlights both simple knitted fabrics and intricate lace patterns.
The yarn contains 70% SuperKid Mohair, an exceptionally fine and soft mohair fibre obtained from young Angora goats, and 30% natural silk. SuperKid Mohair is valued for its lightness, delicate softness and characteristic fluffy halo, while silk contributes strength and a subtle natural sheen. Together, these fibres create a lightweight yarn suitable for elegant garments and accessories with a beautifully soft texture.
With 212 metres of yarn per 25 g ball, Lana Gatto Silk Mohair is well suited to lightweight garments, delicate openwork and semi-transparent knitted fabrics. The manufacturer's recommended knitting needle size is 3 mm. Larger needles may be used to create a more open, airy texture, depending on the desired gauge and stitch pattern. The indigo Blu Elettrico shade looks particularly striking in single-colour designs and pairs beautifully with white, light grey, black and silver-grey tones for elegant contrasts.
Actual yarn consumption depends on garment size, stitch pattern, knitting tension and needle size.
