Shaped Cardigan

Soon to be finished, a shaped cardigan for my sister, promised at Christmas. I am using Green Mountain Spinnery's Mountain Mohair, a dream to work with.

Here's Scooter the Wonder Cat. He's approximately 14 years old and is the biggest sweetheart and bravest cat in the world. He had a bout of insulin dependent diabetes several years ago, but by some miracle now manages just fine as long as he sticks to his special kibbles. His current torture consists of daily eye drops for glaucoma and sub-q fluids about every day now.

Here it is, two years in the making. The sleeves actually only took 3 weeks apiece and the body about a month, but there were many other projects in between.

This is mitten #1, minus the thumb, from Nancy Bush's Folk Knitting in Estonia. I used leftover wool from my Poetry in Stitches cardigan.
