Sweater for Mardi Gras

As I was sweeping the week’s worth of cat fur from my two feline companions, I began thinking about all the things I mindlessly throw out. If I save the cat fur for several months, I might have enough for a nice sweater. Cat fur is soft, right? Granted, the pewter gray isn’t pretty, but with Rit red-violet #131 and a few knitting skills, I could have a cozy sweater by Mardi Gras 2013-provided the Mayans were wrong. As for looking like this in my Mardi Gras sweater…I wish!
