Knitting pattern ideas using mohair yarn?

Pattern Central

Hello everyone!

I recently got a hold of a rather large (and fluffy) skein of mohair yarn, and couldn’t quite decide what to make with it.

I thought perhaps a lacy scarf or shawl might work. Any ideas from the knitters out there on patterns you like or have found?

Thanks!

A lacy scarf in mohair would be lovely. The pattern depends a bit on the gauge for the mohair that you have although it’s easy to adjust a scarf or shawl for that.
Here are 2 patterns for scarfs from Ravelry (free to join) that use mohair at different gauges to get things started.
