Fyberspates Faery Wings, Sport 5ply, 50g/175 metres, 67% Silk/23% Mohair/10% Polyamide

A beautiful and unusual silk and mohair yarn, Faery Wings is a combination of a single ply of shiny silk wrapped with a strand of fluffy mohair and nylon to create a yarn with a wonderful handle and luxurious drape.  

Made with 69% Mulberry Silk, 22% Mohair and 9% Polyamide, Faery Wings is put up in 50g hanks with 175m/191yds per hank and is available in 13 shades from semi solid to variegated. 

This blend of fibres means the yarn takes the semi solid and variegated hand dyed shades with a unique depth and intensity. 

Despite the textured appearance of Faery Wings in the hank, the yarn knits up into a smooth and even fabric with luxurious drape and a soft halo.

Faery Wings relaxes with washing and blocking, always wash and block your swatch before your begin a project.
