ArtYarns Mohair Silk Ombre 2 ply - Rainbow Mountain
Rainbow Mountain (inspired by Rainbow Mountain in Peru, a hand painted yarn) has intense shades of reds, blues and gold on neutral white background. Soft as a feather and light as the breeze. But don't let that fool you. Mohair Silk Ombre 2ply, a luxury yarn, is wonderful for keeping your shoulders warm! This 60% Kid Mohair 40% silk took the dye deeply, but when worked up, the halo softens those quick color changes. Great for a simple shoulder wrap or capelet to allow the yarn and colors to be center stage.
Be sure to look at the cake-up image. That image shows the long color runs.
