Knit with Le Petit Silk & Mohair by itself or combine a strand of it with a strand of Le Petit Lambswool and you'll have a project that is dreamy soft with a gentle halo to it. There are many wonderful patterns that use this technique including the Ranunculus by Midori Hirose & Circe by Natasja Hornby.
So easy to knit with and very soft. I am not sure I would enjoy knitting with any other mohair type yarn now. Martha in the shop told me I would love it and she was right!

Somehow i ordered the wrong color. I think this beige will create an almost invisible halo to something special. A happy mistake, perhaps?
