What is your solution to stop mohair yarn from shedding fluffs of fiber everywhere when knitting?
I don't like how tangly it gets and how difficult it is to unravel if I make a mistake. Then, when I unravel, it's messy. Do you have any tips to avoid that?

I've never used mohair either, but I'm interested in other replies here. From my experience with other yarn, sometimes a yarn just has to "shed" a certain amount and it will stop being so messy after a while.

I don't use mohair for these specific reasons (I'm alergic to it as well :P  ), but you might try a substitue to get the same effect.  Surri Alpaca is one fibre that is recommended quite a bit as a substitue for mohair.  

The Woolly Badger has a great write up on different fibres and yarns that can be substituted for mohair on her blog that was recently posted which you might like to check out.  Just do a google search for the "the Woolly Badger mohair substitute" and you should be able to find it right off since we aren't supposed to post direct links offsite.

Unfortunately if you want to knit with mohair you have to deal with all the drawbacks that entails, but if you are open to a substitute, you can still have the effect, but not as many hassles.  You just have to be open to trying something new.

I've been using brushed alpaca as a substitute for quite some time, it's nice but knitting it is annoying :D and just tried the suri yarn but it wasn't a match for me. I'll check the webpage, thanks!  Post time 2024-2-6 17:46

Do people find mohair itchy? I am sensitive to a lot of wool and hesitant to try it for that reason

If you find lots of wools itchy, knit a swatch and pin it to your shirt next to your skin for a day or two. A 'scratch test' if you will to see if you have a reaction.  Post time 2024-2-5 09:56

I don’t really find much of a problem with it if I crochet with it.
