This was exactly my impression of this yarn as well. Although midnatssol is nice, Fyberspates cumulus, which is a brushed Suri alpaca, is more luxurious and soft as a mohair alternative, in my opinion (but also more expensive). Lang yarns and Lana Grossa make nice brushed suris as well that I found a touch softer. And, of course the Isagar soft fine, which I bought after you reviewed it, has a beautiful halo like mohair and probably the closest I’ve found as a mohair alternative. As always, thank you!
I love this channel. You have inspired me to try different yarns and to knit more. ❤
You are too kind! Thank you Lillian! We can't wait to hear what you're knitting next! :)

Thank you for the insight! We will have to check those ones out!:)
Beautiful color! I would love to see you review Jody Long Alba or Juniper Moon Farm Patagonia Organic Merino.
Thank you for the suggestion! We will add those to our list! :)
I use Midnattsol instead of silk mohair in projects. Not prickly like mohair is so it's the perfect second strand.
Yay! That is so great to hear! :)
