Pascuali Manada takes Mohair and Silk to a whole new level – with Yak!

by

It’s Mohair and Silk but ELEVATED!

Combining the lustrous, long, high quality hair of the Angora goat; the fine, soft and elastic  wool of the Merino sheep; the sumptuous wool of the  Mongolian Yak; add silk and combine it all with Pascuali´s years of experience in developing high quality natural yarns and you have: Manada. This unique blend is not found anywhere else in the yarn market today!

We’re excited to welcome Pascuali Manada to space! Made from 45% Mohair, 25% Silk, 15% Yak, and 15% Wool, this little slice of luxury will elevate your knits. Whether used on its own, or held together with another yarn, this lace weight mohair blend will bring unparalleled softness and warmth to your makes. Spun and dyed in Peru, Manada will pair perfectly with Merino Baby.
