Notes

I have never worked with such fine yarn in mohair and such a large hook and initially it was a challenging experience. My foundation chain was very uneven and I could not unravel the yarn, it was just one big fluffy mess.
Version 2, I kept my chain very loose and used a 6mm hook, just to try and get it more even and also make working into the chain over the next round a bit easier and hey presto it worked.

Only using 3 colours as the 4th was discontinued, but quite pleased with the result so far, I think it will look good with a denim jacket during our mild winters.

Just added the fringe and it really makes a difference, just love this project, after my initial challenges, well worth persevering with the fine yarn, can’ wait to wear it….though the autumn temperatures are still over 20 degrees!
