My Traveller and I have been fighting with mohair/alpaca/wool (a very slippery customer!). I think on the whole I won, though it certainly had its own way over the colours. You'd never believe how small the flashes of gold looked in the braid Laughing

Thanks both. There are not many yards, so I'm not too sure what I'll make with it. Maybe a small cowl.
