Pattern Notes: To Dye For
from Stitch -n- Bitch

I finished this sweater sometime in early 2005 so I don't remember exact details about it. I do know I followed the pattern basically as-is. The only thing I didn't do was buy white yarn and dye it with Kool-Aid (hence the title of the pattern).

Size: Large, I think
Yarn: Halcyon Victorian Brushed Mohair purchased directly from the company which is a wool/ mohair/ nylon blend.
Needles: US 13 and H/8 crochet hook

I knitted the sleeves to the 24" the pattern stated and they were way too long. About a year later, I pulled out both sleeves to fit me and single-crocheted the edges. This created less of a bell shaped-sleeve, but it still looks nice.

Care: Hand wash in cool water or dry clean. Lay flat to dry.
