This bodywarmer is very light, warm and comfortable. This bodywarmer has a beautiful double knitted buttonband and pockets (optional). The entire pattern is supported with a line drawing which shows the number of stitches. This kit contains MYPZ Chunky Kidmohair DK, a high quality fine brushed mohair that does not pill. These brushed yarns may shed a little but after a while this will subside.
Yarn and colors: You knit with 2 strands held double of MYPZ Chunky kidmohair DK (78% Mohair | 13% Wool | 9% Nylon, 50g, 100m). Sometimes we use a few different types of yarn held together, like Sock merino or champaign. So in the end this piece is knitted with 2 DK-weight yarns held double.

Use of color: This bodywarmer requires you to tie many pieces of yarn together. Cut random lengths of each color (we have used lengths of ± 140cm) . The longer your piece of yarn, the wider that color will be in your cardigan. Tie all the lengths together into a large ball. You need to make tight knots! These knots can be visible in your work (we like that!)
