Mohair comes from the Angora goat, not the similarly-named Angora rabbit, and it's instantly recognizable for its halo: a soft, fuzzy bloom that surrounds every stitch and gives finished pieces a warm, glowing texture nothing else quite replicates. It's most often used held together with a finer yarn, wool or silk or a delicate wool blend, where a single strand of mohair adds warmth, subtle shine, and that signature fuzzy halo without adding much bulk or weight, though it's also knit or crocheted on its own for lace shawls and wraps where the halo itself is the whole point. Mohair is exceptionally warm for how light it is, and it has a natural sheen that catches light in a way matte fibers like wool don't, which is part of why it's a favorite for special-occasion pieces. At Bad Cat Knit Goods, every mohair product on our shelves lists its exact fiber content up front, whether that's a mohair-silk blend or another combination, so you always know precisely what you're working with. This is your full in-stock mohair selection, ready to browse, swatch, and take home.
