A few months ago I found this hand-knit cardigan sweater in a thrift store. The sweater was unwearable as it was - there was a big hole in the sleeve. Even so I feel bad about unraveling someone else's handiwork. Of course that didn't stop me. Not sure what the fiber content of the yarn - it burned like it was animal fiber. I'm guessing it is mostly wool with some mohair.
