Mayflower Super Kid Silk

If you have knitted or crocheted before, you probably know about the Danish company Mayflower, located in Brønderslev. It is the manufacturer of some of the most sought-after yarns in the finest quality. It produces yarn in many different series, so you can find varieties for baby clothing, decorations and ornaments.

Today, the Mayflower Super Kid Silk retailer is considered to be one of the Nordic countries' leading manufacturers and suppliers of quality yarns.

Choose Super Kid Silk for those delicate projects

As the name of the yarn suggests, it is made from silk. It can be the perfect yarn to choose for you who want to make a sweater for a child, or who want to crochet or knit the most beautiful shawl.

In addition to approximately ¼ silk, Mayflower Super Kid Silk consists of ¾ mohair wool. This wool quality is exclusive and skin-friendly, and it is preferred by many adults and children when knitting winter accessories, socks, dresses and blouses.

The beauty of mohair is that it is an insulating and skin-friendly natural material that both children and adults will love. It creates no scratchy effects on the body and it makes sure to retain body heat.

You don't need to use your quality silk and mohair yarn with other yarns. You can easily use Mayflower Super Kid Silk on its own. You get lovely, light and airy designs that both you and your children will love.

Beautiful colours that will suit both children and adults

You'll find Mayflower Super Kid Silk in all the beautiful colours you could choose for your son, daughter, girlfriend or yourself. For the adults, a monochrome look may be desired on nice sweaters for winter, while you can knit or crochet the most unique designs for the kids by combining different colours.

The dyeing has been done using healthy colours that neither pollute the environment nor expose you or your family to allergic reactions.

Healthy and natural dyeing also ensures that the shade of your yarn continues to have the same colour year after year. When knitting garments or accessories, be sure to choose yarns that can be hand-washed. Super Kid Silk is hand washable using up to 20 degrees hot water. It is only if there is soil, dirt or odour in the knit that you will need to use a detergent. It is best to choose a mild and neutral detergent designed for cleaning wool.

Take advantage of our volume discount and save money

It can make sense to take advantage of our volume discounts when you want the best yarn on the market. Knitting sweaters or blankets requires many balls of yarn and can end up being an expensive project. By buying more than 5 or 10 Mayflower Super Kid Silk yarn balls, you can save a lot of money. This will have an impact on both the experienced crafter and those who are brand new to knitting or crocheting.

In the beginning, it will take some time to become familiar with points such as knitting gauge, choosing the best knitting needles and using crochet hooks.
