yarn: Shush


70% super kid mohair, 20% nylon, 5 % lycra, 5% wool
32 stitches X 40 rows = 4"/10cm on US #7 needles

12.00 yards per gram
196.00 yards required for one square foot (knit to gauge in stockinette)

SHUSH combines ultra-soft super kid mohair with Lycra.  The result is a remarkably resilient strand that produces fabric with fantastic stretch.  SHUSH is amazingly versatile -- single strand with it on small needles for a tight and ultralight fabric, or double strand on US 8 or so for quick tweeds that mold to shape.  Also of course this is a perfect yarn for many weaving technique, and a full spectrum of artful multi stranding.

We're finding SHUSH to be tremendous fun, a wonderfully open door to a world of innovation.  Please try it and tell us what you discover!
