Notes

This bias loop is a nice, simple pattern, which is good, because the mohair has a large halo of fuzz that would get in the way of more complicated stitch patterns. Just getting it knitted and purled is enough!

This yarn (perhaps mohair in general) sheds like crazy. I’m going to be covered in white fuzz while knitting it and then again while wearing it.

I was dreading the Kitchener seam in the mohair…but it went well enough. Next time I might try some stranded color to play up the bias aspect.
