Our 4ply Mohair blend using the Mohair from our very own goats. It is mixed with local Shetland fleeces to produce a soft but strong yarn. Thin and soft enough to be worn against the skin (as socks or gloves) but strong enough to be used in external garment (jumpers, hats) that will stand the test of time. The yarn has a halo whilst not being too fluffy or itchy.
