Iso similar poncho/cape pattern

Iso similar poncho/cape pattern

The link to the pattern for this is broken. I've searched Lang yarns website for it also and it doesn't seem to exist anymore. I believe it to be discontinued. But I'm in LOVE. Does anyone know of any alternatives? What I really love is the collar, the arm slits, and the asymmetrical joining at the shoulders. I assume it wouldnt be too hard to reverse engineer but I'd rather not deal with the headache of that. I wish to use drops air for this.

What are your favorite free patterns for longer cardigans?

I really love these two one is paid and the other is a drops pattern. I'm looking for a fingering weight or dk weight pattern that is freeeeee and has a cinched waist and some cables but not too many cables and not too much ribbing. I spent at least a couple hours searching ravelry and other sites. So now I ask for your favorite free long cardi patterns

What would you knit with this yarn?

I got 3 balls of this at a local shop but I don't know what to make with it. It's a cotton acrylic blend. It's incredibly soft. It's fingering weight and a total of 1,515 yds.

If you picked this up what pattern would you go for?

I've never used this blend before and I am stumped.

Iso 1 ball of Fusion Mohair color Purple Moor

Help! I picked this up at a local vintage shop and I didn't read the yardage. I am 1 ball short for my current WIP. If you have one of these I'd love to buy it or trade

Help pick a color?

Here is my dress bodice with my two color choices on top, and a photo of the finished piece that inspired me to start this in the first place. Originally I bought the lighter mohair to use for the skirt. Then I came across the darker one and fell in love!

They both look good.

The light one is lace weight Mohair held double with bamboo cotton fingering weight held double so I could meet gauge. It's a lot of strands to work with but it creates a beautiful soft drapey fabric.

The dark one is just 1 strand of a bulkier mohair held with a single strand of the same bamboo cotton. It's much more plush than the light one

I like the dark one. Everyone I've asked though seems to like the lighter one better. So now I ask you. Which would you pick?

ETA: thank you guys! I'm definitely going to go with the darker one. I'm going to swatch it 1 more time to see if I even need the white fingering weight in there. Also I could switch the white to black. If anyone has opinions on this id love to hear them!

Switching from increase round to knit round.

I'm making the Ethereal dress by Sophia Holck

I've never done raglan increases before.

I have 8 markers on my work. 4 blue to mark where I do my m1rs and 4 purple to mark where I do my m1ls. They have 1 stitch in between them that is my Raglan stitch. One of those purple markers though is my beginning of round marker. When I get to the end of an increase round and slip my last purple marker that doubles as my beginning of round marker, do I do 1 more m1l before switching to my knit round? Or no? I feel like if I don't do it then I'm 1 increase short. I don't understand. Ugh

I am currently finishing my 2nd increase row and I have the correct amount of stitches but I'm pretty sure I did an M1l at the start of my last knit only round.

How did this hole happen? Tiptop tank

1st picture shows the mistake. Second pic just showing how it's not a terribly noticable thing. I'm wondering what the heck I did though. I assume it's too late to fix it without frogging a bunch of work. I just want to prevent it in the future. It seems to have happened when I went from working in the round to flat to create the left front section. This is my first garment. First real project actually so I have no idea, Ive just been learning as I go.
