Notes

We ran out of mohair when knitting section 15 and were able to repeat rows one and two 8 more times (9 ridges instead of 10). Rather than going into a second skein of mohair we did the border (section 16) in the fingering only, omitting the mohair stripes. Because we finished section 15 early, we had one extra stitch and in the second-to-last row did a k3tog instead of a k2tog.

Also, please note there is an errata for this pattern:

Section 12, Row 13: K1, yo, k8, {k2tog} 3 times, {yo, k1} 5 times, yo, {ssk} 3 times; rpt from to 14 sts before the marker, {k2tog} 3 times, {yo, k1} 3 times, k3, sl st-k2tog-psso, rm, k6, {k2tog} 3 times, {yo, k1} 5 times, yo, {ssk} 3 times; rpt from to the last st, yo, k1.

Lichen and Lace Marsh Mohair and 1-ply Superwash Merino Fingering are both available on our website, as is Laine Magazine Issue #2 which features this pattern.
