I made this shrug for one of my daughter’s Christmas presents. Striping the shrug made it take a little longer, but not much. Sewing the seams together was a quick job, even allowing for the ever-essential thumbholes.

The shrug has a really beautiful fitted line across the shoulders which isn’t really evident in the photo on the original pattern. That was a pleasant surprise. It looks a little strange lying around by itself, but looks great on which is the whole point.
