MAYFLOWER - Super Kid Silk - Charcoal Grey


Mayflower Super Kid Silk Mayflower Super Kid Silk is one of the softest silk mohair qualities on the market and is spun from the exclusive natural fibres mohair and silk. The shiny kid mohair fibres come from young Angora goats, where the fibres are extra fine, long, and soft. Mohair is also elastic, durable, and moisture-absorbing, and like silk, it has a natural lustre and impressive strength. The silk in Mayflower Super Kid Silk is mulberry silk, known for its high quality. The silk is sourced responsibly, and the silkworms have left their cocoons before they are harvested. The combination of mohair and silk results in an exclusive yarn with fantastic lightness, softness, and a beautiful, natural sheen. Super Kid Silk is suitable for knitting alone, where the yarn provides an extraordinarily light and airy result with unparalleled softness. It is also ideal as a companion thread with other Mayflower yarn qualities, for example, wool. Here, it adds extra texture and volume, while retaining the light and lustrous appearance of silk mohair. Both mohair and silk fibres take colour exceptionally well, resulting in beautiful and saturated shades. Super Kid Silk is available in a large selection of colours – from atmospheric natural tones and soft pastels to more powerful and eye-catching vibrant colours. If you knit with multiple strands, you can also combine different shades and create an exciting, mottled colour play that gives your project a personal touch. The yarn has a yardage of 195 metres per 25 grams and belongs to the Lace yarn group. The recommended needle size is 4.5–5 mm, and the gauge is 22 stitches x 27 rows = 10 x 10 cm. Mayflower Super Kid Silk is suitable for cardigans and sweaters, both as a single strand and combined with other yarn qualities. Mayflower Super Kid Silk is certified with OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100. This certification places a wide range of requirements on both the yarn's content and the process it undergoes during production.
