THE TWO-TONE (ONE-TONE) RIBBED SHRUG!
THE TWO-TONE (ONE-TONE) RIBBED SHRUG!
This was such a quick and enjoyable knit. If I made this again I would trust my instincts more than my gauge (which was a bit off, so I decided to knit the smallest size) and would make this bigger - as you can see, it is a little on the small side... Still, it was fun and I've already worn this today. Also, the yarn was wonderful to work with - Knitpicks Andean Treasure - I can only recommend it.
Stats:

You look fabulous! It's hard to believe you recently had a baby. And the shrug looks great, too. I love the color you chose.
ReplyDeleteThe shrug looks great and fits fine, not too snug at all. And like Beth said, wow, you really look fab!
ReplyDeleteI can only add to what the others said - you certainly got your pre-baby figure back quickly!!
ReplyDeleteThe shrug looks fabulous, as do you. I'd dismissed this pattern as not for me but yours looks great - I think just using one colour makes a big difference.
Grrrrr - grrrrreen with envy - 5 years on and I am still sporting my "baby belly" and look at you! You and the shrug look fantasic.
ReplyDeleteThe shrug looks great! And so do you -- hard to believe you've had a baby :o)
ReplyDeleteThat's a really pretty shrug and I love the colour... and you are looking fab! I am with Carolyn, it's a really nice pattern - I didn't like the pink and purple but in another colour the shaping really shines through.
ReplyDeleteOne tone or two, it's a great shrug!
ReplyDeleteI love that little shrug! Does it come with complementary plastic surgery?
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't look like that on me!!
Iris...you look absolutely stunning. The bean should be proud to have Mom looking so wonderful
ReplyDeleteThe shrug looks good on you...nice colors with your dark hair.
Now, you've been tagged for a Birth Date MeME...see my blog for details.
