Orange-Grey Delancey Cardigan

After eight months in knitting process, it is finished.  "It" being the cardigan begun in the low lights of December last year.


 Yup, it is a l-o-n-g...sweater.
 With an orange grosgrain button band attached to the back of the front buttons for stability.
Orange flower buttons on the front.

And pretty orange cosmos from our gardens!

Joining in with Natural Suburbia for Creative Friday and Fiber Arts Friday to share finished projects.
