New, unused kit. Purchased online from Hobonichi in September 2020. This is a sold-out item and will not be restocked. Will be sent in the original packaging as purchased. "This is a knitting kit for "mizudori," designed with inspiration from the Bohus knitting of Sweden, which Ms. Mikuni has always admired. Using luxurious original angora yarn, it has become a proud work of Miknits 2020." "Finished Size (approximate) Chest: 94cm, Length: 55.5cm, Sleeve Length: 73cm Yarn: Miknits Angora Thickness Guide: Approx. 6m per 1g Composition: 50% Angora 50% Wool Tools Required: 1-go (2.4mm) double-pointed needles 2-go (2.1mm) double-pointed needles Yarn needle (for grafting, mattress stitch, and finishing) "Angora wool fibers are smooth and slippery, which can cause the fibers to shed easily. Please handle with care, avoiding friction. We recommend using mothballs for storage. The "Mariko Mikuni Hand-Knitting Kit" includes a slightly larger amount of yarn than is needed when knitting with the specified needles. Returns and exchanges are not accepted if you run out of yarn during the process due to not knitting with the correct gauge. Thank you for your understanding. The Hobonichi Store cannot answer individual questions about knitting techniques. Please ask someone who is good at knitting or search video sites on the internet. There may be knots in the yarn. This is due to manufacturing specifications, so please use it as is. Pulling the yarn with force may cause it to break. Straw and other debris may be mixed in with the wool; please remove it before use. Wash in room temperature water with a detergent for delicate items. Do not rub; gently hand wash and lightly spin in a laundry net in the washing machine. After spinning, gently stretch the knitted fabric to shape it, and dry it flat in the shade. The size may vary depending on how tightly you pull the yarn when knitting. The finished size is only a reference. Dark-colored yarn may transfer color to knitting needles, hands, or clothing due to friction or sweat."
