Sourced locally in the West Country from a herd of Angora goats specifically bred to achieve one of the lowest micron counts in the UK, this fibre is silky soft and has a lustre that stays even after dying and spinning.
Ideal for spinning into a fine mohair yarn or why not leave in the curls and produce a novelty yarn. The possibilities are endless!
Available Raw or Hand Dyed

The silk spins into a very fine yarn and can be plied with other yarns for a very dramatic effect in your knitting or weaving.
With the silk caps, why not try knitting straight from the cap, just peel off a layer of silk, make a hole in the centre and keep expanding the square until you have a fine thread. Spectacular results for hand knitted shawls and scarves.
