Moonbroch Superhero Genes Slate Blue

72% kid mohair, 28% silk hand dyed yarn. Approximately 420m / 50g per skein.

Moonbroch is a luxury kid mohair and silk lace weight yarn with a fluffy haze.

A moonbroch is a halo round the moon and it's a perfect description for the glorious mohair haze offered by this yarn.

Indie dyed in our Yorkshire studio. This fluffy blend of kid mohair and silk yarn is a laceweight yarn. It works well on it's own and also combines beautifully with other yarns where it offers a soft haze of colour. 

Our kid mohair and silk yarn comes from South Africa. 

Care for this yarn by hand washing it with a mild detergent and drying flat. 

Hand dyed yarn varies between skeins and batches. Please ensure you buy enough yarn to complete your project and alternate between skeins for multi skein projects.

The names for these colours come from my lovely friend Scully, and are inspired by her brother Adam who died in 2019. Scully and her mum have asked that money raised from this yarn goes to Jeans for Genes Day.

Jeans for Genes Day is the annual fundraising campaign for Genetic Disorders UK, the national charity that supports individuals and families affected by a genetic disorder. 

Monies raised on Jeans for Genes Day fund the work of the charity and provide grants to organisations for projects that aim to transform the lives of children with genetic disorders.

We’ll be donating 50% of the purchase price of these yarns to Genetic Disorders UK. The remaining 50% covers the yarn costs, VAT, tax and dye costs. In turn that means we can make more of these yarns available and hopefully raise more money for this charity.

If you’d like to donate to Jeans for Genes Day you can do so here.
