I'm spinning some extremely soft, shiny, beautiful kid mohair. It will be fingering weight and I want to use it for the warp to weave a scarf or shawl.I've seen some commercial ‘brushed’ mohair that was unbelievably fuzzy, and I'm wondering if my yarn will have a large halo like angora when my project is finished and used. I love mohair for its softness and shine, but I don't want it fuzzy. I'll probably use sizing when I weave with it to prevent it from sticking, but I'm interested in what it will look like after it's been used for about a year.I'm spinning it 100% mohair, but the weft will probably be wool or a wool blend.
I spin a lot of dog hair, and after the article is used for a while, it looks like one big fuzz ball. I want to prevent that with the mohair.
