Messy Mohair

Used mohair to create a scarf using a hairpin lace loom (see scarf in wooden platter).  The pattern resulted in a warm, light weight scarf; but it left a lot to be desired in terms of overall appearance.  The lace created by the hairpin isn't visible because of the fuzz from the mohair blocked out the definition.

Because mohair has a tendency to cling to itself after being knitted or crocheted into a fabric, I chose to make another scarf out of the remaining yarn instead of unraveling the one pictured in the wooden platter.

A lacier, yet warm scarf (shown on mannequin) was created using a pattern from Designing Vashti called "Lovepod Boa" and strings together a series of crochet stitches commonly known as Love Knots or Solomon's Knots.
