Ito Sensai

This Sensai-tional (sorry, couldn't help ourselves) silk mohair is ultra-light, super-soft, and comes in more colors than we can count; no wonder it's our best-selling lace weight yarn and a perennial fave of all who love mohair!

Use Ito Sensai by itself in floaty, whisper-light tops and accessories, or hold it double (or triple!) with your favorite wool for that gorgeous cloud-halo effect only mohair can give.

Note: To make our favorite Little Triangle Scarf, pair your Sensai with a skein of its corresponding Woolfolk Tynd, using the selector below. The pattern will be automatically sent to you for free if these two yarns are purchased together – nice!
