Singing Falls ~ Our Mohair
All of our shepherding efforts culminate in making mohair available to a wide range of artistic fiber crafters and those who appreciate the quality and beauty of natural fiber garments. If you find yourself with us for those reasons, welcome to our world.
On this page you will find links to some of our mohair throws hand crafted by Alexandra. These throws are individually woven and custom dyed to each customer's specifications, from kid or yearling mohair. Because each throw is a unique work of love, hand spun and hand woven painstakingly over a period of time, the measurements and weights will vary. We can do and have done pure white throws of natural mohair and they are beautiful. The type of weave also determines the density of each throw. For example, in a herringbone weave, the throw becomes a heavier "winter weight" blanket. Slightly lighter weaves result in a lighter but still warm mohair throw. We adjust our prices accordingly. Some pictures of the mohair weave, up close, can be found here. A price list and description of some of our items can be found at Alexandra's Gallery

This all natural colored throw illustrates the plain beauty and brilliance of mohair. This weave has less weight but is still quite warm. We have dyed and woven fantastic throws in rainbow hues also. They are enjoyable to do. Look on the gallery page to see what we have available and can create for you.
We use the finest kid hair, both dyed and natural colored, for the throws. Natural colored plaids are earthy looking but the luster of the mohair still comes through giving it a noticeable elegance. You choose the colors - we can weave you a throw that matches your room's color scheme. Natural dyes? Favorite color? We think fiber art garments should be personal, expressing your individuality and design preferences. Please inquire by e-mail.

We also include rug weaving in our array of fine wovens. The pile on these rugs is plush, thick and rich. The warp is made of the finest Belgian linen for strength and durability. Our "rug page" illustrates the quality built into these rugs.
Each year we create a series of scarves in a broad range of colors and styles. The luxury and warmth of kid mohair lends itself to skin contact. Unlike wool which itches, kid mohair is fit even for exposure to children. scarf page here
