Made with a double strand of a favorite lace-weight mohair and silk blend, you'll have fun playing with color, mixing with ombre shading, or crossing the color wheel for graphic punch. For the scarf, we mixed four solid colors - two at a time - to create shaded color blocking. You can also read the full description or view all Churchmouse Classics Patterns.
This is an easy pattern -- the only part that was a little tedious was casting on 648 stitches. Just make sure to use the markers ever 50 stitches as recommended. A scarf that is a little different!
This loop went together fast and easy right up to the grafting part for me. I'd never done it, now I know to leave those grafting weaves REALLY loose so you can go back and tighten them like a corset at the end. I used the Madelinetosh Prairie Yarn in Baltic. Its not a brushed or fuzzy yarn but it came out nice regardless. Can't wait to start more of these for Christmas gifts using a Mohair!
I really admire the ingenuity of the stitch change. It happens just when you pull it up on your head cuz you're getting colder! Mushishi evergreen- YUM!
