|  | Reflection Angoragold Batik with Metallic DK by Creative Yarns
Unfortunately the company who supply us with this yarn are no longer trading, so when it's gone, it's gone I'm afraid. We still have stocks of all the shades shown and we'll try and keep the website up to date as we sell out of shades.
This is a fantastic double knitting yarn with a light, soft, hairy feel spun from 10% mohair, 10% wool, 75% acrylic and 5% metallic. Fine mohair yarns are brilliant because although they knit as double knitting, they have the meterage of a much finer yarn (nearer a 3ply), so you only need a couple of balls for a garment! Reflection is a shaded yarn that gradually changes from one colour to another throughout you project, so you get a subtle and interesting effect without any effort. This metallic version has a fine twinkly thread running through it to add a bit of bling to your knitwear! Knit to the exclusive Creative Yarns designs or to any DK pattern, but check your tension first.

This is an exclusive selection of fancy yarns of various counts, textures and colours. **We have introduced some special bulk purchases at dramatically reduced prices. Order 5 assorted cones and save £4.50 - simply click on "mixed" and we'll put the best selection together for you.**

The yarns are full of texture and character as there are loops, gimps, ribbons, chenilles, slubs and tasselly bits throughout!

Perfect to add drama and texture to embroidery, tassels, weaving and knitting. Two of the collection are the last few kilos of discontinued fancy BMS yarns. These are the 82% Mohair Hedgerow and the Kid Mohair and Silk blend of Cocoon - two fantastic yarns at a fraction of their original
