From ‘Knitting Today’s Classics’: Soft, warm mohair is a fabulous fiber for adults and children alike. The easy color-block cardigan for children, worked entirely in stockinette stitch, is a great project for using odd skeins of different shades of yarn. Choose fun, brightly colored buttons for closures. Rated as beginner knitting, the pattern begins on page 40.
