This beautiful throw (or large scarf if you prefer) is made of mohair, considered one of the oldest fiber textiles in existence. Loved for its shine, warmth, and silk-like hand- feel, mohair is also suitable for people with sensitive skin as the wool is not itchy. Mohair, AKA the diamond fiber, is a luxury fiber, similar to cashmere.

Our throws are hand-knitted by rural women from the Xhosa tribe in South Africa -where Nelson Mandela was born. These women are hard-working, strong, and resilient. Mothers and daughters work together to provide their children with education and a better way of life.
