Cardiff Cashmere Prime is truly hard to beat for the quality, softness, meterage, and color range. If you're looking for a mohair alternative to knit by itself or held with another yarn, you really can't go wrong. I've used this yarn held double for a wee Sophie Scarf, held together with Noro Silk Garden Sock Singles for a sweater, and now with Önling No 3 Merino and every application is divine. I'll note that Prile in Hermes (color 146) is a PERFECT match for Önling No 3 in "Tomato Red" (color 118). Hoping to purchase a sweater quantity in black, navy, or chocolate to knit a classic cardigan twinset. If you're hesitating, my advice is... don't :)
