Can you say cloud? I'm lucky that my yarn provider has such a lovely silk mohair. I've knit several items with this and have yet to run across a rouge guard hair in the mohair. While mohair is soft and lovely on the skin, it can be a pain on the needles. This yarn loves to stick to itself, so when you make a mistake be calm in the ripping out process.
