HOW THICK IS THIS YARN?

Our yarn thickness is measured using the NM count, the industry standard in the knitting world. This differs from ply, which is commonly used for hand knitting yarns. To help you visualize the yarn's thickness, we've compared it to everyday items.

This yarn is similar thickness to waxed dental floss but with a brushed fluffy texture.

WHAT CAN I MAKE?

Superkid mohair yarn is a great choice for next to skin garments like scarves, socks, beanies due to it's exceptionally soft hand feel. It has a silk like lustre and a fluffy texture that can be brushed out after knitting. Add an end of our MERINO CASHMERE YARN for heavier knits or make a statement with beautiful lightweight piece.

Open stitches and lacework to show off yarn. It is recommended to work in a looser tension to highlight the nature of the yarn.

  • What's the difference between hand and machine knit yarn?

    Machine knit yarn is coned yarn for even tension and has more strength than hand knit yarn. You can use both interchangeably but the biggest difference would be the stretch and strength machine knitting yarn has.
