PROCESS
Le Petit Silk & Mohair is spun and dyed in Italy, in mills renowned for their expertise, craftsmanship, and their commitment to both people and the environment.

ORIGIN OF THE FIBERS & CARE OF THE ANIMALS
This soft and luminous yarn brings together two extraordinary natural fibers:
- The Silk, from China
- The Mohair, from South Africa, sourced from carefully raised Angora goats

The Silk
The Silk we use comes from Silk waste and cocoons from which the moths have already flown out before production. This ensures a fiber that is produced 100% in respect of animal life.

The Mohair
Our mohair comes from South African farms committed to a sustainable and respectful approach.

The Angora goats are shorn gently, by experienced hands, in calm and safe conditions.
They live outdoors, with access to fresh water, veterinary care, and protection from predators.

These farms follow the principles of the Responsible Mohair Standard (RMS): a guarantee of animal welfare, responsible land management, and respect for nature.

Ethical and Sustainable Production: This is a regenerative way of working to preserve the soil, protecting water, maintaining biodiversity, and ensuring the future of the fiber.

A holistic approach where the quality of the yarn and respect for life move forward hand in hand.
