!! In the sweater on the picture we have knitted the color MYPZ Super Soft Merino DK Warm Rosé together with 1 strand MYPZ Kidmohair Light pink. This kidmohair is itchy for some people and because it's used in the collar of the sweater an don the bottom part you can easily leave it out. There is not a big difference when you leave it out. That's why have chosen not to add it to the kit. You can buy it separately here if you like: MYPZ Kidmohair Light pink.
