I say do a small swatch with both mohairs! I never know how the colors will look until I start knitting with them. But I do love that pink! Also, Woolly Worker just finished the Urania cardigan from Sari's book. It's stunning. I believe she went over it in her latest podcast. Your Lauder fits you so well!!! It looks SO GOOD on you.
Ahh hers is so pretty! And u did end up going with the pink. It looks great so far!
The Lauder Cardigan is stunning!
Gorgeous cardigan!
Thank you! 😊
I've cast on a Lauder V neck sweater ❤❤❤ loving it!!
I vote for the pinky mohair, that will be such a stunning soft combo
Ohh I hope you love it!
This is so lovely and colorWow!!!
Amber you always do beautiful work!!
♥️♥️♥️it!!
Can’t wait to see your new test knit
Have a great rest of the week 😊🥰
Thank you so much!
I love your Lauder Cardigan Amanda! It looks amazing on you and I can imagine it would be a fave piece!
Thank you so much! It's getting so much wear already. Such a staple!
Definitely the pink toned mohair for your colourwork sweater! ❤
I think so too!
The yarn combination for you Opal sweater is looking very cool!
Oh thank you!
Lovely cardigan
Beautiful!
Re superwash, I’d say wash in the machine on 30 C + gentle spincycle, WITHOUT fabric softener (most important!) and the garment will keep its shape. It can easily stretch and grow if you wash it by hand.
Depends a lot on how you lay it out when blocking as well! For hand dyed superwash I always recommend still hand washing just to be safe!
I like the pink option I think the gray may blend with your other colors a lot. Love the Blue color of the main part of the sweater.
I think I’m going for the pink! You’re totally right.
Your Lauder cardigan is STUNNING!! My Lavender Honey should be here I. Just a couple of days. You were superfast with it. So excited❤
Ahh yay! What are you planning to make with it?
Knee socks
I made the interthreading pullover and I just knit the sleeves in the round, and it worked out fine. I avoid seaming like the plague 😅
Lolol if I wasn’t testing I’d 100% do the same thing 🤣
The Gleener works on pilling very easily
Yes! I have an electric pill remover that I love.
LOVE THE CARDIGAN!!! I just learned how to knit cables on a hat. If you’re not using the cabling needle, do you just drop those stitches and then pick them back up according to pattern? Like not securing them in any way? That sounds frightening 😂. I have no idea which mohair to tell you to choose 😬. I’m knitting my second Find Your Fade while watching you today ❤
I pinch then really tight in my fingers, rearrange them on my left needle, then knit across them!
Your Lauder looks absolutely stunning ! I've been looking into a tubular cast off for the cardigan I was working on ( the Fluffy Poof - really fun pattern, easy knit and you get to play with colour ), but understand that it is some sort of three needle/sown bind off-like thing. So I decided against, as I have absolutely no clue how to estimate the lenght of tail you need to bind off the collar. So, there's my question - do you also use the tubular bind off for the collar, or just for the sleeve cuffs and the bottom ( hem ? ) edge, and if so, how do you estimate yardage for it ?
I used it for everything! You want slightly more than 4x the length of what you're binding off.
I had a bad experience with blien yarn. It baloons a lot, and the collar was standing out. I am interested in hearing about your experience
That’s good to know! Thankfully this is for a cowl, but I’ll be sure to share what I think!
