Lana Gatto Silk Mohair A1783 (Lime) is an elegant Italian yarn in a striking lime colour, combining the exceptional lightness of fine mohair with the natural refinement of silk. The vibrant Lime shade brings energy and a fresh, contemporary character to handmade knitwear. Its delicate halo of fine fibres gently softens the colour, creating an airy, fluffy surface that adds visual interest to both simple stitches 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 prized for its delicate texture, lightness and characteristic fluffy halo, while silk contributes strength and a subtle natural sheen. Together, these fibres create a beautifully lightweight yarn suitable for soft, elegant knitted garments and accessories.

Ideal for:

Statement lime green jumpers, feather-light sweaters, delicate lace tops and contemporary cardigans.
Airy shawls, lightweight wraps, scarves and accessories that make the most of the distinctive Lime colour.
Working with a single strand or several strands, or combining with merino wool, cashmere or other smooth yarns to add softness and a delicate mohair halo.

Knitting characteristics:

With 212 metres of yarn per 25 g ball, Lana Gatto Silk Mohair is well suited to lightweight garments, delicate lace patterns and semi-transparent knitted fabrics. The manufacturer's recommended knitting needle size is 3 mm. Larger needles may be used for a more open, airy texture, depending on the desired gauge and stitch pattern. The Lime shade looks particularly striking in monochrome pieces and can be paired with black, white or grey yarns for bold colour contrasts.

Approximate yarn requirements:

Lightweight lace jumper, worked with a single strand (size 46–48): approximately 4 balls.
Delicate shawl or airy wrap: approximately 3–4 balls.
Women's jumper, worked with two strands (size 44–48): approximately 7–8 balls.

Actual yarn consumption depends on garment size, stitch pattern, knitting tension and needle size.
