Suggestions for crochet needed, please
 

Hello group,

DH and mine friend came to stay with us this past week. Last night he
gave us some gifts and he gave me 2 skeins of Lion Brand Imagine
(mohair blend). 1 2.5oz skein of red and 1 of black. It's VERY nice
and not something I've splurged on myself. Now, I live in South
Florida where scarves, mittens, and hats are not needed - well,
sometimes it dips to 30 but we just stay inside then!

So, does anyone have any suggestions on what I could make with this
lovely yarn? I'm a thread crocheter. I do have a box full of yarn
for odd projects - to make cute things for my kids - but I focus on
thread mostly. So I don't have any ideas what to make.

Now, I suppose I could make our friend something out of it - he lives
in Virginia.

Thanks, group!

Large size hook, double or treble stitches in an open lacy pattern, make a
shawl or wrap.

I'd second that idea of a shawl or wrap. Even in really hot weather, you
can walk into a movie theater or office building, and it will be so
air-conditioned that you end up shivering. Something light that you can
carry with and throw over to keep the chill off your neck / shoulders beats
carrying a sweater with. Imagine is so very soft too -- I think it would
make a wonderful wrap!
