Loading...The tops 75% fine Merino wool 25% Kid Mohair represents a balanced and refined blend in which the structure of merino wool is combined with the luster and lightness of kid mohair. The result is a soft, airy and visually dynamic fiber ideal for spinning, weaving and fiber art projects that require volume, movement and sophisticated texture. Working in tops, with combed and aligned fibers, ensures continuity and ease of use, maximizing the complementary qualities of the two fibers.

The blend is composed of fine merino wool and kid mohair, two fibers with complementary morphologies: merino has a crimped, elastic and uniform structure, while kid mohair is characterized by long, smooth and highly lustrous fibers. The combination generates a soft but at the same time light and fluffy fiber with good cohesion and a voluminous and shiny final effect. The presence of mohair reduces the typical compactness of wool, increasing airiness and aesthetic performance.
The merino wool used in the blend comes from selected farms located primarily in South America, while the kid mohair is derived from Angora goat raised in specialized areas between South Africa and Turkey. Both fibers are harvested according to controlled processes that respect the fleece's natural growth cycle. The combination of diverse origins reflects a highly specialized global supply chain dedicated to the production of quality animal fibers for high-end creative and textile uses.
The dyes used for our products meet the requirements of the OEKO-TEX standard, which guarantees the control and limitation of substances potentially harmful to human health and the environment.
The dyeing of fibers is carried out in our dyehouse in Italy, in compliance with current European regulations on chemical substances and environmental safety, including the REACH Regulation (EC No. 1907/2006), which governs the registration, evaluation, authorization and restriction of chemical substances.
Operating within the European Union also entails compliance with additional provisions on environmental protection and textile product safety, such as the CLP Regulation (EC No. 1272/2008), relating to the classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures. This regulatory framework ensures that dyeing processes are conducted according to high standards of safety, traceability and environmental responsibility, offering a reliable product for both the end user and the environment.
Our viscose tops are perfect for l´needle felting, forwater felting, for spinning, the hand weaving.
Since colors may vary depending on your monitor or device settings, we recommend purchasing our Color Card to check the shades in person before placing your final order. Want to check the quality of the material? Choose our Sample Box.
CAUTION: All of our colors generally exhibit high lightfastness and wash fastness. However, fluorescent colors (80's collection), in addition to having a lower lightfastness, may also suffer significant color loss in the presence of alkaline or particularly aggressive soaps, as well as with prolonged processing or washing. This phenomenon can occur, to varying degrees, even with dark and particularly bright colors. For materials dyed with these shades, we always recommend that a preliminary processing and washing test be carried out on a small sample before making the final design. This precaution is essential, especially when dyed materials are combined with unbleached or light-colored fibers.
Finally, to best preserve the colors, it is recommended that artifacts not be dried in direct sunlight, but in a shady place.
