Notes

Unraveled husband’s cashmere sweater that the moths had nibbled on. Combining it with mohair for a new life.

Made the body and sleeves longer than the pattern. The decreases in the sleeves seem off? It looks like you would need more rows than stated to accommodate all decreases? Overall great pattern would make again.
