LAMANA Premia – Kid Mohair & Silk Lace Yarn
Premia begins on a South African farm that raises its Angora goats to Mohair South Africa's animal-welfare standards and works within the country's Black Economic Empowerment program — sharing ownership and opportunity, not just exporting fleece. From there, the raw mohair travels to Italy, where a family-run mill spins and dyes it the way they have for generations.
What lands in your hands is a featherlight lace yarn — 60% super kid mohair, 40% mulberry silk — with a soft halo of fluff and the quiet shine only real silk gives. Because both fibers take color the same way, Premia's tones stay calm and even, never patchy.
Worked on its own, it makes gossamer lace shawls. Held double, it builds softly sheer garments with a glow. And carried alongside any of your other yarns, it lends a whisper of fluff and a little more softness to everything it touches.
