Filpucci S.P.A. · Diablo 9000 · 900m/985yds per 100g/3.5oz · 30% Mohair (WM) 30% Polyamide (PA) 40% Acrylic (PC)

Diablo 9000 by Filpucci S.P.A. is a mohair halo yarn of generous, enveloping softness. 30% mohair provides the long, silky fibers that bloom outward from the core thread, creating a full, luminous halo that surrounds every stitch in a cloud of fine fiber. The halo is even and substantial, giving finished fabric a dreamy, diffused quality where the surface becomes soft and glowing rather than sharp and defined.

40% acrylic provides the structural backbone, keeping the yarn light, resilient, and consistent throughout. 30% polyamide adds durability and strength, ensuring the finished fabric holds up beautifully through wear and washing despite the delicacy of the mohair halo. The composition is designed for comfort and performance: soft in the hand, warm in wear, and easy to care for.

Diablo 9000 works beautifully as a standalone yarn and as an exceptional companion thread, the traditional pairing of a mohair halo with a fine base thread is one of knitting's most beloved techniques, and this yarn excels in that role, instantly adding a soft luminous halo to any yarn it accompanies.

Versatile Use

Diablo 9000 works from 1 strand upward, with the halo expanding and deepening at every additional strand. Larger needles than the meterage suggests are recommended, mohair halos need space to breathe and bloom fully. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Ideal for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and accessories where softness, warmth, and a generous mohair halo define the design.

Swatching Required

A washed and thoroughly dried swatch is essential. Mohair halos bloom further after washing, altering both gauge and the visual weight of the fabric. Always swatch on the needles you intend to use.
