Novel, ...Thank you, everyone, for your kinds words! <BR/><BR/>Novel, to answer your question, Yes and No. The mohair came from Ellen's Half Pint Farm. It was dyed in a mix of reds and greys. When I first started knitting the stole, I noticed that the red color was pooling in the middle of the stole. Thus, in an attempt to get the yarn to look more blended, I cut the yarn after every repeat (16 rows) and wove in a new skein. However, about half way through the stole, I noticed that every time I would weave in a new skein it would revert back to the original color (grey) as if it was trying to self-pattern. And so I let it. The latter half of the stole was knit without any intervention from me.Knitted Gemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00506537850912326743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731452888532791252.post-91675311096516469432007-11-02T08:36:00.000-05:002007-11-02T08:36:00.000-05:00Very, very pretty and it looks so cozy!Very, very pretty and it looks so cozy!Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16864238564223046820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731452888532791252.post-66624292558259354932007-11-01T21:46:00.000-05:002007-11-01T21:46:00.000-05:00That is gorgeous!Is it a multi-colored dyed yarn? ...That is gorgeous!<BR/>Is it a multi-colored dyed yarn?
