Not easy to figure out but here’s what iI understand. The actual knitting may be quite straightforward but you may not want to take the chance.

I AM TRYing to trawl the internet to look for the pattern. I was thinking though. I have got this far… my front of the pattern, with my scotties at the front (black) i have done my sleeves What do you think plain black mohair would look like? Instead of me pulling it all back and starting another pattern? anyone got any opinions… anne
Sure, if you like the look of the black mohair, go ahead and give it a try. If the scottie motif is in black it should complement. You’re really the best judge of this since you have the sweater in front of you.
