Malamute/Tunis wool sweater

This cabled sweater is also Kathy's from her other malamute Lucy. The sweater is an unique design just for Kathy. 2 single strands of 100% lucy hair were plied with a single strand of tunis yarn creating a balanced 3ply finished yarn. Although in pictures Lucy appears to be grey her undercoat reveiled her true color red. To match the beautiful cream color a tunis fleece was chosen. Tunis sheep are considered "red heads" they are born alburn and lighten as they age to a reddish creamy color. They retain the darked red color on their heads and legs.
