I've done this pattern once before, with worsted weight Cascade wool...I decided to try it with the Angora yarn I bought off my friend. I have a whack of it in black.... I might be completely insane lol.

Frogging it might be a problem as it usually is with the fuzzy yarns like mohair so take care.

Should be super soft!

That'll be gorgeous. I'm working on the one with the SS inthe middle in a bulky. Can't wait to see yours

Very nice! what a great idea....they must be easy to whip up in no time?.....looks like the basic dishcloth pattern I'm currently knitting, only half of it.

Garter stitch is so thick and cushy! I love it!

I forgot to say, I love the colors in the link you showed. Now you're doing a second, black one? Black is the hardest color to me....can't really see each stitch. G'luck!

I love the multicolours in that photo, too. Gorgeous.

I'm knitting on silver cable/circs (knitpicks options) so the black shows up fine, I think.

Black is hard for me, too. I have to have very good light to do it. Outdoors works fairly well if it's nice out.
