Adéle’s Mohair is a labour intensive cottage industry, producing designer knitting yarns, accessories and home textiles. Adéle started the business in 1983 and continues to run it adhering to fair trade and green standards. The luxurious natural fibres of mohair (from Angora goats) and Merino wool (from sheep) are locally sourced and of the finest quality. The current trend of recycle and reuse has created opportunities for innovative and contemporary design of new products.
The workshop is located in the rural areas between the port cities of East London and Port Elizabeth of South Africa and employs and empowers rural women.
These limited edition Super Kid Ladders are made from the first clip of a baby Angora goat, and is thus so fine and soft. Yarn is almost never made exclusively from that clip, because it is SO expensive. This is a once in a lieftime opportunity to experience this yarn. So if you want to feel luxuriousness, for a BRILLIANT price, grab a ladder or two or three. Two will make a small size sweater, three for medium to larger sizes.
