This is a lovely light and decorative wrap suitable for everyday and elegant enough for evening. The high loft of the mohair makes it very warm for its weight and the length gives the option of wearing it in several different ways.
The yarn is held double for the main body of the wrap and the twizzles are worked with a single strand.The twizzles are worked as you go , so there are no extra ends to weave in.
There are several possibilities for colour combinations; muted ,as I have done, or high contrast or even all in one colour. It is also possible to combine different brands of yarn to get the colour combination you want, but I would not recommend different weights.
This is a straightforward and fairly speedy knit with a little bit of interest added by working the twizzles.
The soft fabric is very flattering round the face and you are sure to get compliments when wearing it.
