Managing shedding in mohair yarn requires careful consideration, especially when dealing with chunky pullovers or cardigans knitted on larger needles. Despite efforts, complete elimination of shedding may be elusive due to the inherently loose fibers. However, by delicately handling the yarn, employing gentle cold-water hand wash techniques, and opting for flat drying methods over hanging, shedding can be minimized. Additionally, some enthusiasts suggest an unconventional approach: freezing the mohair item in a plastic bag before wear to potentially set the fibers and reduce shedding, although this method remains untested by some. While shedding may persist to some degree, these refined techniques serve to mitigate its impact.
