Notes

Finished just after Christmas! It would have been done yesterday if my tapestry needle hadn’t broken and I hadn’t been in Colorado… Let’s not even mention the family drama…

For my boyfriend’s mom. cut the pattern short at the top and the end of the thumb to compensate for her tiny hands. I’m kind of addicted to mixing mohair in my colorwork to add dimension, and the panda and mohair mixed together like a dream. Rowan Haze is a much better mohair, but it’s a few dollars more and I’m trying to cut corners.
