Lana Gatto Silk Mohair A0900 (Birdie Pink) is an elegant Italian yarn in a beautiful pink shade, combining the exceptional lightness of fine mohair with the natural refinement of silk. The Birdie Pink colour has a lively, expressive character that adds freshness and personality to handmade knitwear. Its delicate halo of fluffy fibres creates an airy surface, gently softening the colour and enhancing 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 appreciated for its lightness, softness and characteristic fluffy halo, while silk contributes strength and a subtle natural sheen. Together, these fibres create a delicate, lightweight yarn for elegant garments 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 fabric, depending on the desired gauge and stitch pattern. The Birdie Pink shade pairs beautifully with white, light grey, black and other neutral colours, offering attractive possibilities for elegant monochrome pieces and expressive colour contrasts.
Actual yarn consumption depends on garment size, stitch pattern, knitting tension and needle size.
