• Cozy yet refined sweaters and cardigans
• Chanel-style jackets and textured outerwear
• Soft scarves, wraps, and voluminous cowls
• Statement accessories and designer-inspired knitwear
➤ Knitter’s Note
I knitted my sample using US size 4 needles in one thread. While knitting, the sample felt slightly rough, with visible openness between stitches. However, after washing, the mohair bloomed beautifully — filling in the empty spaces and creating a soft, full, and fluffy texture. I would absolutely recommend using this yarn in a single thread for creating cozy, warm, and incredibly comfortable knitwear like sweaters and cardigans.
✧ Recommended Needles & Hooks
• Knitting Needles: 4.0–6.0 mm (US 6–10)
• Crochet Hooks: 4.0–5.5 mm (US G–I)
For a lighter, more open texture, use larger needles to allow the mohair halo to bloom.
✧ Estimated Yarn Usage
• Sweater (Size M): 350–450 g (approx. 1225–1575 m / 1340–1720 yd)
• Cardigan or Jacket: 450–600 g (approx. 1575–2100 m / 1720–2295 yd)
• Scarf or Wrap: 150–250 g (approx. 525–875 m / 575–955 yd)
⋔ Weaving Recommendations
Excellent for weft in textured or artistic fabrics. The bouclé-tweed effect creates depth and luxury. For warp, pair with a strong, smooth yarn such as silk or cotton for stability. Recommended sett: 8–10 EPI for soft drape; 12–14 EPI for a denser, more tailored finish.
⟳ Care Instructions
• Hand wash gently in cool water with mild detergent
