Silkymoon - CAPE GAPE

Silkymoon - CAPE GAPESILKYMOON is a luxurious lace weight yarn designed for knitters and crocheters. 72% Kid Mohair and 28% Silk Silkymoon combines the airy warmth of mohair with the smooth sheen and drape of silk. With approximately 210 metres per 25g ball, Silkymoon is ideal for lightweight shawls, scarves, wraps and sweaters. Its fine construction creates beautifully soft fabric, whether used on its own or held together with another yarn for added texture and warmth.
