Knitted this sweater for my sister, and it took considerably longer than anticipated because of the nature of the super kid mohair. It was like knitting with thread – I’ll never do it again.
And honestly, I’ll never use Mission Falls again. I cannot tell you how many times I had to cut out bad yarn because of the horrible weave. At one point I have a section that was almost two yards long of completely unusable yarn. This happened consistently over the course of the four balls of yarn I used. I did inform the yarn store and they were kind enough to offer store credit.
I hope it fits her and I hope she likes it.
