Designed for knitters and crocheters who prioritize both texture and ethical sourcing, the Wool and the Gang Take Care Mohair yarn offers a versatile, lofty aesthetic suitable for year-round garments. This RMS-certified yarn blends kid mohair, wool, and polyamide to create a soft, lightweight finish that handles both airy, lacy patterns and dense, cozy structures with ease, though its fuzzy halo can be challenging for beginners during the unravelling process.

Kid Mohair is generally softer than standard wool, but sensitivity varies by individual. Most find it very comfortable against the skin.
While beautiful, this yarn is quite delicate and may not hold up to the high friction inside shoes.
Like most high-content mohair yarns, it may pill if subjected to constant friction; handle with care.
Each 50g ball contains 100 meters of yarn.
Yes, but ensure the finished garment is not left where the fuzzy fibers could be ingested.
No, it is highly recommended to hand wash only to protect the mohair fibers.
Mohair has natural friction; use smooth needles (bamboo or polished metal) to help stitches slide more easily.
Unravelling mohair is difficult; if you must 'frog' your work, do so slowly and carefully to avoid tangling the fuzzy fibers.
Light shedding is normal for mohair; avoid aggressive handling and store finished items in a dedicated garment bag.
To begin, ensure you have your project needle size matched to your desired stitch density. Given the fiber blend, always perform a small test swatch before starting your main project to confirm the tension meets the 13-stitch by 18-row requirement.
Care instructions are vital for maintaining the 'halo' effect of mohair. It is recommended to hand wash your finished items in cool water with a gentle wool detergent. Lay the garment flat to dry, away from direct sunlight, to prevent the fibers from matting or shrinking. Avoid wringing or twisting the yarn when wet to preserve the integrity of the polyamide core.
