Getting Started
Using large needles, it’s simple to knit the body in stockinette and add ribbing at the cuffs and bottom. Change the color, type of yarn, and length for countless variations.
Brush mohair lightly with a hairbrush to soften and fluff it. Remember, the more you wear it, the softer it gets.
