Lineapiu S.P.A. · Camelot Silk 9000 · 900m/985yds per 100g/3.5oz · 75% Mohair (WM) 25% Silk (Se)

Camelot Silk 9000 by Lineapiu S.P.A. is a classic kid mohair and silk halo yarn of exceptional quality, one of the most refined combinations in the fine yarn world. 75% mohair provides the long, silky fibers that bloom outward from the core thread, creating a full, luminous halo with the characteristic softness and natural sheen that only quality mohair can produce. 25% silk transforms the halo entirely, adding a living pearlescent luster that runs through every fiber and gives the cloud of mohair a brilliance and luminosity that plain mohair halos simply do not have.

The mohair-silk combination is among the most beloved in luxury knitting precisely because the two fibers bring out the best in each other: mohair's warmth and volume amplified by silk's luster and fluid quality, silk's luminosity given depth and softness by mohair's fine fiber halo. The result is a yarn that is soft, warm, luminous, and effortlessly elegant.

Camelot Silk 9000 works beautifully as a standalone yarn and as an exceptional companion thread. A single strand paired with any base yarn instantly wraps it in a luminous mohair-silk halo, adding warmth, softness, and a pearlescent sheen that transforms any combination into something genuinely beautiful.

Versatile Use

Camelot Silk 9000 works in 1 or 2 strands. Larger needles than the meterage suggests are recommended, the mohair-silk halo needs space to breathe and bloom fully. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Ideal for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and accessories where a luminous natural halo and mohair-silk luxury define the design.

Care Instructions

Hand wash gently in cool water

Use a mild detergent suitable for mohair and silk blends

Lay flat to dry on a horizontal surface

Do not wring, twist, or agitate

Silk becomes weaker when wet, handle with extra care

Do not brush or rub, mohair halo is delicate

Steam lightly at low temperature if necessary

Swatching Required

A washed and thoroughly dried swatch is essential. The mohair-silk halo blooms significantly after washing, altering both gauge and the visual weight of the fabric. Always swatch on the needles you intend to use.
