Mint is a super-soft kid mohair and silk lace-weight yarn

The soft kid mohair provides a gorgeous halo and wonderful warmth. The silk lends sheen, drape, strength, and dyes beautifully. We dye this special yarn slowly to preserve its softness.

It’s such a fun yarn! Use Mint on its own for lighter than air projects, hold it double to get an impressive range in gauge or pair with Pip, Beaut, Prosper DK or any of our other bases for popular patterns like Petite Knits'.  The creative potential is unlimited.

Available in 50g/420m (459yds) and 20g mini /167 meters (183 yards)!

A note on skein-matching

Each hand-dyed skein has its own subtle variations in colour and tone, even within the same batch. It's what we love about hand-dyed yarn. For multi-skein projects, you can alternate between two skeins every two rows when knitting flat, or every round when knitting in the round, to help blend variation and reduce colour pooling if this is important to you. We love the complexity this creates.

Buy an extra skein for those 'just in case' moments. If you don't end up needing it, let us know and you can exchange it. This means you'll never lose at yarn chicken again!
