Yarn Alternatives
Use any mohair yarn to achieve a similar effect. If using a thinner mohair pair it with another laceweight yarn, if you choose a thicker mohair yarn use it single stranded. Please note working with DK or worsted-weight yarn with smaller yardage per skein is not recommended for this jumper, as it will end up too heavy and might lose its shape.
