What is Novita Helene best for?

Helene is stunning worked into cable and lace knits, where its light halo and soft drape really shine, and it finishes just as beautifully in plain stockinette. Browse more in our mohair yarn collection.

How much yarn do I need for a project?

Each skein holds 218 yards. A shawl or cowl typically uses 2 to 3 skeins, and a sport weight sweater may call for 7 to 9 depending on size, so we are glad to help you plan for your pattern.

What fiber is it, and where does it come from?

It is a blend of 60% merino wool, 30% silk, and 10% super kid mohair, and it is OEKO-TEX certified. Each fiber brings something different, warmth from the wool, sheen from the silk, and a soft halo from the mohair. Explore more of our wool yarn .

How do I care for it?

Hand wash and lay flat to dry, gentle care that protects the mohair halo and silk sheen.

Do I need to hold this together with another yarn?

No, Helene is a substantial sport weight on its own, so it is meant to be knit or crocheted by itself rather than held with another strand. That already gives you the wool, silk, and mohair blend in every stitch.
