Celtic Cardigan (2005)
 |
Pattern: Celtic Cardigan from Green Mountain Spinnery Yarn: Green Mountain Spinnery Mountain Mohair |
This is a drop-shoulder cardigan, with celtic motifs. It is fairisle-ish in its design, and use of (mostly) only 2 colours in any given row. With the woven yarns in the yoke/over the shoulders, the sweater has a very sturdy structure from which to hang. The colours of the Mountain Mohair are lively — lightened by the white mohair staples in the yarn.
It is standing up well to rather regular wear!
