Bonmoher

Add a little mohair softness to your next sweater, scarf, or shawl with Urth Bonmoher. This lace weight blend of super kid mohair and silk creates a soft, airy halo—the gentle fuzz that gives finished projects that inviting, touchable texture.

Bonmoher combines a strong silk core with soft mohair. Work it on its own for a delicate, lightweight fabric, or hold it alongside another yarn to add softness, loft, and a new layer of color. It’s a lovely way to give a familiar yarn a different look and feel.

Choose from solids and hand-dyed variegated shades to complement your project. Pair similar colors for a subtle effect, or try contrasting shades to create more depth. Bonmoher’s colors are designed to coordinate with Urth’s 16 Collection, making it especially easy to find a companion yarn.

Great For

• Airy knitted or crocheted shawls, scarves, and wraps.
• Adding a soft mohair halo to sweaters, cardigans, and accessories by holding it with another yarn.
• Exploring color combinations in lightweight fabrics.

Project Inspiration

The pictured Mélange Shawl brings together three shades of Bonmoher for a soft blend of color in an airy wrap.

The Patina Scarf pairs one skein of Bonmoher with one skein of Urth 16 Fingering—a beautiful example of how a mohair strand can transform a smooth yarn with added softness and texture.
