Kid Seta | Olive 470
Kid Seta | Olive 470
Gepard
Gepard’s Kid Seta brings together the very best of silk and super kid mohair to create an ultra soft and luxurious yarn.
Only the finest quality mohair is used in this blend. Carefully milled, the mohair is gently spun into a core of silk and brushed to produce a delicate halo.
Worked on its own Kid Seta creates a lush drapey fabric that resists creasing and wrinkles. When stranded with another yarn the mohair adds luxe and sophistication.
Best suited to hand-knit and woven fabrics, Kid Seta will impart an enduring aesthetic for timeless wardrobe pieces.
