Ilaria Aurora 72 Mohair 25 Nylon 3 Wool Brushed Cone Yarn · 1/10Nm · Italy

This mohair-rich blend yarn combines a luminous halo with lightweight warmth and quiet strength, offering an airy, softly veiled surface and a gentle brushed handfeel. Spun at 1/10Nm, it is fine and weightless yet resilient, making it especially suited to halo-rich knitwear and lightly textured fabrics.

The color 006508 is a muted olive tone — grounded and atmospheric, with a soft natural depth that feels timeless and understated. It is especially suitable for minimal aesthetic knitwear, layered seasonal pieces, and designs built around a natural palette.

As an industrial surplus yarn, this cone provides consistency in spinning quality while maintaining flexibility for creative development. The high mohair content brings loft, halo, and insulating warmth, while the nylon core adds durability and structure, and the touch of wool lends softness and cohesion.

Important Notes

• This yarn is light and lofty, with a soft halo that develops with brushing and wear
• For best results, swatch before production to test tension and fabric density
• Cone yarn is different from skein yarn and must always be swatched before knitting to evaluate shrinkage and gauge
• Mohair blooms after washing — a gentle wash and light steam bring out the full halo
• It can be held single for airy fabrics, or held with other yarns to add warmth and texture
• Some cones may be rewound onto empty cones without original mill labels
• The cone label may not be the original mill label
• May have mild outer dust or storage marks
• Sold as is, without retail packaging
• All yarns are 100% functional with no visible flaws or defects affecting usability
• Please note that cone yarn is wound in an industrial format
• In rare cases, internal breaks may not be visible from the outside of the cone
• Please allow approximately 2%–3% knitting loss, which is standard for cone yarn handling
• In case of yarn breaks, pull away about 10 cm of yarn before rejoining and secure with a small cross-knot to reduce tension and avoid distortion in the knitted fabric
