Hand-Dyed Isager Silk Mohair Lace, Garden Riot — Super Kid Mohair / Silk, 927yd / 3.5oz

A bright spring-garden riot: fresh leaf-green, hot pink, ruby red, marigold yellow and a quick deep navy, all painted into one skein. Two matched skeins from one run.

This is the colourway for the project that wants weather. It reads like a cottage border on the first warm day — everything blooming at once, no two patches identical. Knit on its own as a brushed-mohair shawl, the colours wash into each other in watercolour gradients. Held over a cream or natural fingering, each splash holds its own.

This listing is for one full skein. We have 2 skeins of Garden Riot — green / red / pink / yellow / navy in stock; buy one or all of them. Each skein is approximately 100 g / 3.5 oz / 848 m / 927 yards, laceweight Isager Silk Mohair.

About the base. Hand-dyed by an anonymous indie artist on Isager Silk Mohair — a Danish mill classic, 75% super kid mohair / 25% silk, spun to a fine lace gauge of 848 m / 927 yards per 100 g skein. The mohair gives a soft, glowing halo that catches light the way frost catches sun; the silk holds colour with the quiet intensity that mohair alone can’t. Worked on its own it knits airy and translucent — the colourway floating in a cloud rather than sitting on a strand. Held double with a fingering or sport, it adds a halo of colour over a plainer base, the way watercolour adds depth over a pencil sketch.
