I just got a new ball of yarn that has 49% nylon, 25% kid mohair, 17% wool, and 9% metallic. So 42% is feltable. Will this yarn felt?

  1. i am not 100% sure, but im going to say no.  the nylon content is too high.  what brand yarn is it?


  2. For a yarn to felt well you need at least 85% non-superwash animal fiber in it.  Your yarn will felt a bit because of the amount of wool and mohair in it, but it will not felt completely.  You have 58% fibers that do not felt at all, so this would not be successful.
