Recently in Airy Cardigan Category

I bought some mohair on eBay. I like the yarn, but the color is VERY different from what I had expected.

It was described as light violet and looked like a pale blue in the pics. I think I was sent the wrong yarn.

I thought I would make the best of it but I'm not sure I'm feeling the love. The pattern is a quick knit and I am enjoying knititng it. But the color -- not so much.

It's 80% mohair and 20% acrylic. Do you think I could overdye it with a light lavender or pink to make it less stripey and less white? I think I'll feel like a big marshmallow in this cardi.
