I love Drops Brushed Alpaca, I made my Mist Sleeves out of it. Drops Kid Silk is terribly itchy for me, I haven't used any other mohair yarns because of budget reasons.

I agree- the drops kid silk is so itchy! And I’m too scared to try nicer mohairs because they’re so expensive

I have been waiting for this video since a few months ago when you showed us a look at your video plans lol

[@sarahs.handmakes]

I hope it was worth the wait!!

Great suggestions! The climate in Australia does make mohair a bit tricky to wear. For these type of yarn comparison videos, I would find it helpful if you also mentioned the yardage of each of the yarns.

[@sarahs.handmakes]

That’s a good point too! Can you wear Suri easier? And good note, will do in the future! These are all about 25g and around the same yardage of 200 yds- but some will have more or less of course
