I also finished this cardigan. I got this wool in a LYS on sale. It's pure wool from Peru and quite soft. At first I was not crazy about the color but it grew on me. Anne-Marie was the one who chose it between three other colors that were on sale. The more I knitted the more I liked it. I brought it with me at the cottage and when my mom in law saw it she raved about how nice the wool was and how the color looked like autumn leaves (maybe a pumpkin???)and on and on. Last time I saw her she asked if it was finished. Just a few strands to fix and buttons to be sewed on I said.....
I love my mom in law and I think I just found a christmas gift for her. I think she'll be surprised . I REALLY love my mom in Law.
Anne-Marie's costume's finished! Can't wait to post a picture...
Good by for now

Sorry I took a long time to post your comment but being new at blogging, I have to learn as I go. Sometimes I have a hard time with english technical terms so I have to ask and research. But I'll manage. Thank you so much for answering me.
