    Pure White Mohair Spinning Fiber | Kid Mohair for Handspinning

    Price range: $14.00 through $60.00

    Pure white mohair delivers the luxury fiber experience spinners dream about—exceptional luster, incredible drape, and a finished yarn that seems to glow from within. This is mohair at its finest: fine micron count, brilliant white, and ready to become something extraordinary.  This Mohair is sourced from South Africa.

    Fiber Characteristics:

    • Micron count: 26-30 microns (Kid to Young Goat)
    • Staple length: 4-6 inches
    • Brilliant natural white
    • Minimal crimp, smooth fiber structure
    • Exceptional luster and sheen

    Ideal For:

    • Lace weight yarns with ethereal drape
    • Shawls that showcase stitch definition
    • Lightweight garments with silk-like hand
    • Luxury blends adding sheen and halo
    • Mohair loop and boucle art yarns

    Mohair’s unique structure creates yarn with a characteristic halo and warmth without weight. The fiber’s smooth surface reflects light beautifully, making even simple stockinette appear luminous. This fiber felts minimally, maintaining dimensional stability in finished garments.

    Spinning Considerations: Mohair can be slippery for beginners—consider starting with a 2 oz sample to build confidence. The fiber rewards a light touch and produces yarn with exceptional yardage per ounce due to its loft.

    Colorways: White mohair serves as an ideal canvas across all seven of our colorways. It particularly enhances Waters (Blues) with depth and luminosity, and allows Quiet Hours (Purples) to achieve their full richness.

    Care Instructions: Hand wash cool, lay flat to dry. Minimal felting tendency. Moth-resistant due to fiber structure.

    Heritage Test Box – Three Fiber Sampler (6oz)

    Three fibers, three textures, three spinning experiences:

    • ~2 oz Texas Yearling Mohair – Natural white with incredible luster. Soft enough for next-to-skin, strong enough for heirloom pieces. Drafts like butter.
    • ~2 oz Falkland Islands Wool – Natural cream, raised without mulesing or chemical dipping. The workhorse fiber spinners love – soft, springy, forgiving. Perfect for garments and felting.
    • ~2 oz Bamboo – Natural ivory with silk-like drape. Plant-based, cooling, moisture-wicking. Slippery to spin but the results are worth it. Blends beautifully with wool.

    Total: 6 oz of top fiber

    Two ounces is the sweet spot: enough to really understand how a fiber spins, enough to make something if you blend all three, enough to know if you want to order 8-16 oz more for a full project.
