Our flagship yarn, La Gran has been part of the Classic Elite Yarns collection since the very beginning in the mid 1980’s.

Mohair is fine and lustrous and has many of the good qualities of wool. It can absorb moisture yet still feel warm and dry and mohair shows color beautifully! Lightweight and airy, La Gran is spun with a strong binder–a combination of wool and nylon–to secure the fluffier mohair fibers.
