YARN
1 skein of 1-trådet by Mohair by Canard (50g = 350 m / 383 yards) (65% kid mohair, 35% merino wool) and 1 skein of Paia by Filcolana (25g = 245 m / 268 yards) (67% viscose, 33% metallic polyester).
For the sample we used a total of 30 g of Mohair by Canard and 15 g Paia by Filcolana. You will need to divide the 1-trådet Mohair by Canard into two 15 g balls.
