I have quite a bit of this yarn bought on sale a few years back. It was one of those buys that couldn't be passed up and then just sits in the stash. I have used up several colors bought at that sale. One of my favorites is the Tundra. I have one skein left and was thinking of making a headscarf with it.
This is something I won't be frogging because I don't like to take out anything knit with mohair. It knots up, tangles, breaks, basically it is a pain. If it ends up surviving the frogging; the yarn is never the same the second time it's knit up.
So, I swatched it.
I checked it for stitches per inch.
I stretched it a bit because this headscarf is held on by stretch alone.
Then I did the math, subtracted a whole inch worth of stitches, and used one size smaller of needles; being cautious of it being too big. And what happens.....
It ended up bit bigger then I wanted it to be. It will still fit someone with a head of about 22"; too big for me. I am glad that used one of the 8 Everglades skeins and not the 1 Tundra that is left in my stash.
