Big, fluffy, cozy, and warm! This pattern uses two strands of mohair lace and large needles to create surprisingly warm garments that knit up quickly. It is easy enough for a beginner and fun enough to hold the attention of an experienced knitter.

Use 5 colors of mohair yarn to shift through a total of 9 colors by how you hold the colors together: Color 1 (C1) + C1 followed by C1 + C2, then C2+ C2, C2 + C3, …, ending with C5 + C5. The result is a very sophisticated accessory that is very easy to make.

Uses:
5 - 25g skeins for the scarf, 125g total
10 - 25g skeins for the wrap (2 skeins each of 5 colors), 250g total
