Add a touch of deliciously soft fluff to your next project with this cloud-like Baby Suri Silk Brushed by Indiecita. Incredibly soft to touch, this yarn is gentle on the skin and is perfect to use held with another yarn or simply by itself to create light-as-a-feather garments and accessories. This is an versatile yarn which can be knitted as a heavy laceweight / light fingering on smaller needles, or used on larger needles for a more open fabric with stunning drape.
If you can't wear mohair or find it irritating, then this is the perfect substitute.
A great option for those patterns that call for a strand of yarn to be held with a strand of suri ... such as Pink Velvet by Andrea Mowry, Xiao Mai 小麥 by Layla Yang (from Neons & Neutrals by Laine), Soul Sister Scarf by Sari Nordlund ...or substitute for mohair in patterns such as Love Note by Tincanknits and PetiteKnit's patterns. If a pattern calls for two strands of mohair then you only need one strand of Suri Silk!
