Qing Fibre Kid Silk Mohair, Cottage Confetti — Hand-Dyed Young Mohair / Silk, 919yd / 3.5oz

A garden-party of a skein — bright magenta, butter yellow, turquoise, and a soft lilac, all dropped onto a cream Qing Fibre halo like wedding confetti caught mid-air. A single one-of-one skein.

This is the cheerful one. Where the rest of the set leans moody, Cottage Confetti reads like a sweet-pea border in early summer — every colour saturated, none of them fighting. The cream undyed mohair carries the whole palette; the magenta and turquoise hit hardest, the butter yellow and lilac float between them. Worked alone on a brushed-mohair lace shawl, the colours pool into watercolour; held over a pale-pink or oat fingering, each spot of colour holds its own. Once it sells, the exact combination is gone.

This listing is for one full skein. We have 1 skein of Cottage Confetti — magenta, cream, butter yellow, turquoise, lilac in stock — the one and only. Each skein is approximately 100 g / 3.5 oz / 840 m / ~919 yards, laceweight Qing Fibre Kid Silk Mohair. A true one-skein listing — once it sells, this colourway is gone.

About the base. Qing Fibre Kid Silk Mohair is a British-spun, hand-dyed luxury laceweight — 70% young mohair / 30% spun silk, 100 g / 840 m (~919 yards) per skein. Young mohair gives a softer, finer halo than standard kid mohair — the kind that catches light around a stitch without scratching at the neck. The spun silk core takes dye with a deeper, wetter saturation than standard silk-mohair bases, which is why every Qing Fibre colourway reads as painted rather than printed. Worked solo it knits up airy and translucent — the colour floats 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.
