Wild fig.

Posted by on Dec 06, 2011 in my creative space

I’ve used Alchemy’s silk mohair before
in combination with other yarns.
This is the first time I’ve knitted with it alone.

Wow. What amazing softness and light as air luxury.
And this colorway (wild fig) is stunning.

The prototype for this cowl
(Churchmouse Yarn’s Mohair Bias Loop — found here.)
is meant to be much wider
and worn draped around your shoulders
or doubled around the neck.

My version is much narrower
and hangs loosely around my neck
or pulled up over my head, snood style.

I love it.

Another fun knit along with Tamara.
