Purple Mohair Raglan Cardigan

I did another top down raglan sweater. I'm making a dent in my mohair stash. The mohair bin is down to only one layer deep.

I did this with two strands of Chasing Rainbows Dyeworks mohair on #13 needles. For the ribbing and the border at the neck and front, I did #311 needles.

Maybe purple on purple was a bad idea for this picture. This sweater isn't quite wide enough for me.I'm not planning on adding buttons. This is a sweater to wear when someone has the air conditioning up too high. The sleeves are the right length. Although they look pretty narrow, that works for me. My wrists are pretty small.

I bound off too tightly so there isn't enough give in the wrists. I'm happy with the size but I wish there were more elasticity in the wrist opening.
