Lana Gatto Silk Mohair 30142 (Verde Asparago) is an elegant Italian yarn in a warm, muted olive shade, combining the exceptional softness of fine mohair with the natural refinement of silk. The Verde Asparago colour features earthy green tones with subtle yellow-brown undertones, reminiscent of olive foliage and natural landscapes. Its delicate halo of fluffy fibres creates an airy texture that gently softens the shade and enhances 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 finish.
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 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 olive Verde Asparago shade pairs beautifully with beige, caramel, brown, black and natural colours, offering attractive possibilities for understated earthy combinations and elegant single-colour designs.
Actual yarn consumption depends on garment size, stitch pattern, knitting tension and needle size.
