Lana Gatto Silk Mohair 30141 (Mattone) is an elegant Italian yarn in a warm terracotta shade, combining the exceptional softness of fine mohair with the natural refinement of silk. The Mattone colour features a rich reddish-brown tone reminiscent of fired clay, bringing warmth and character to handmade knitwear. Its delicate halo of fluffy fibres creates an airy surface that softens the colour and enhances the beauty of 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 appreciated for its lightness, softness and distinctive fluffy halo, while silk contributes strength and a subtle natural sheen. Together, these fibres produce a delicate, lightweight yarn suitable for elegant garments with a beautifully soft texture.

Ideal for:

Terracotta-coloured feather-light jumpers, delicate lace tops, elegant cardigans and airy knitted wraps.
Soft shawls, lightweight scarves, stoles and accessories with a fine, fluffy surface and a distinctive warm colour.
Knitting with one or several strands, or combining with merino wool, cashmere and 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 openwork 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 fabric, depending on the desired gauge and stitch pattern. The terracotta Mattone shade pairs beautifully with brown, olive, black and natural colours, making it a versatile choice for elegant monochrome designs and warm colour combinations.

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.
