It's a Bird! It's a Plane! It's a Shrug!
This girl is all smiles at finishing her first Fitted Knit, the Two-Toned Shrug:
I am very happy with the project, save for that one small incident of a dropped stitch (but then again, maybe I should not have been knitting in the backseat of a car at night). Also, I don't think that I properly allowed for the thickness of the handspun used in the body, so the fit is a little tighter than I usually like. However, when this heat wave passes, I am sure it will get lots of wear.
With the shrug completed, I have already cast on for my next project, the Puff-Sleeved Feminine Cardigan. More on the Cardigan in a future post!
Congratulations ! It looks great :-)
