FO: Moss Stitch Cardigan and Fan and Feather Bonnet
I'm so naughty, waiting till the absolute last second to give someone their gift. I finally finished the cardigan yesterday and whipped up the bonnet last night. They are for my old sewing teacher who is having her baby any day now. It's a relief to have it done and in the mail!

The cardigan pattern is the one I always use, the Daisy Cardigan in the pattern directory here on KH, however, I use the moss stitch the whole way through it.
The bonnet is actually courtesy of own very own Shandeh, I found out. I scrolled down the page and saw the picture and thought, "I know that face..." And sure enough! Thanks, Sandy, for the beautiful pattern!!!

What a beautiful set! I love the fabric that moss st produces, I find it difficult to do for an entire sweater but the result is worth the effort. I'm sure your sewing teacher will be dellighted.
