Slouchy mohair cardigan wool dupe

Hi all,

I’ve seen a pattern for a mohair cardigan online: https://www.creativaatelier.com/knitted-mohair-cardigan-pattern-and-tutorial/?lang=en

However, it uses ‘Fashion Kid Light Schachenmayr’, which I’m struggling to source in the UK. The composition is as follows: 38% nylon, 33% acrylic and 30% mohair. I began using a wool with 70% mohair and it was a big mistake as it was far too thin and fluffy.

I’ve tried to find dupes but most ones with mohair seem to be 70% mohair, which I think is the issue? I was wondering if anyone knows of any yarn I can use that would give the same look as on the pattern?

Thanks in advance!

Stella
