Miette Cardigan

So I have finally finished the Miette cardigan.

Sorry about the pictures, I only have a camera phone and I find it does not show the best of the Rooster Yarn or the knitting pattern.....

I was over the moon when I received this parcel from Rooster Yarns.....

Look at this yarn.....

It seems more purple on this photo, but the actual colour is a deep plum colour.

 As soon as I saw this yarn, I knew what I was going to knit.  There is enough yarn to complete Andi Satterlund's Miette Cardigan, I think Almerino Aran yarn would be the perfect yarn for this pattern.....
