Using Moonlight Mohair alone or with other yarn?

Question

I am trying to use up my stash.  I have a few skeins of Moonlight Mohair and want to make a scarf.  My question is should I use is alone or use it along with a complimentary color.  I've never used it before, so I'm not quite sure which would look and feel better.  Thanks in advance

I haven't worked with this yarn either but I did a quick google search and it is a bulky number 5 weight yarn so I would stick with that yarn only. According to what I read, it is best used with a larger hook (L or M) and simple stitches like sc, dc, or tc. If you check out the Lion Brand website, they do have patterns using it and a couple do use other yarn with it. But for a scarf (in my little humble opinion), I would stick with just the Moonlight Mohair.

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks Roe.  That's how I feel too, but I saw a beautiful purse made with it and the LB suede and it tempted me to try doing that with a scarf.   But I agree with you.  For a scarf, just the one.  Thanks again.  Happy New Year !
