⟳ Weaving Recommendations
EIFFEL works beautifully as weft in lightweight, airy, halo-rich woven fabrics. Its Super Kid Mohair and Silk composition creates a soft, glowing surface with excellent drape and elegant texture.
• Single strand — extremely light, open, ethereal cloth with a delicate mohair halo
• Double strand — fuller, cohesive fabric with improved stability and warmth
• Triple strand — soft, warm textiles with a pronounced halo and gentle structure
• Best for weft: mohair performs exceptionally well when paired with smooth, stronger fibers in the warp (silk, tightly spun merino, fine wool)
• Not recommended for warp unless reinforced with a stronger companion yarn, due to the delicate, airy nature of mohair
Suggested Sett (EPI): 8–14, depending on strand count and desired openness, drape, and halo bloom.
⚑ Care Instructions
• Hand wash gently in cold water
• Use mild detergent for delicate fibers
• Do not wring; gently press out excess water
• Lay flat to dry
• Mohair halo improves and softens after washing
