I have acquired 6 small skeins of Mohair, but don't have a pattern for them. 4 are moonlight, and 2 are plain. Don't need anymore scarves or hats. Anyone know where there may be some nice patterns?
I have a few I got from Lionbrand's site, but the shawls call for more than I have. Any ideas out there?

How about a shrug? They usually don't take much.
How about a pillow or two?
How about a lacy shawl like Lover's Knot, it shouldn't take much.

Lacy shawls (no I didn't work out the yardage for you to see if they'll work ;))

I made my unicorn out of mohair http://cottoncandees.com/images/20070929_121.JPG

I am thinking of making a purse out of mohair for my next project. It is washable and so soft...:hook

Thank you very much, just never dawned on me to use any lacey shawl pattern. Haven't made a shawl since I was much, much, much younger.
And haven't used a love knot in ages. I was really happy to see it still is being used.
I don't understand why you couldn't work out the yardage :lol, after all you did all the work of looking for me...
Seriously I appreciate it very much, and have bookmarked or printed up almost all of it. I even joined the Caron site (I happen to really like Simply Soft).
I like your website Candee, let me know how the purse turns out, I am a purse addict. Thank you for all the great suggestions.
