Little Purple Shrug

I started this shrug from Lace Style earlier in the month and finished it today. I'm going to wear it to a wedding I'm going to in Sept. Here are a few pix of the completed shrug. In the photos, I'm wearing the dress I'll be wearing to the wedding.


Specs

Pattern: Little Lace Shrug from Lace Style
Yarn: Tapestry by Rowan
Colorway: Highland (SH179)
Fiber: 70% wool, 30% soy

It was pretty fun to knit although the lace pattern did start to get boring after awhile. Still, it was easy and turned out well and that's what I really needed right now in a knitting project (who doesn't need a project that turns out well?!)

In other news, I'm having an okay Labor Day weekend even though I've been into lab a couple times now. I think I'm going to take a half day off tomorrow (yeah, I'm wild like that). The yeast are behaving in one experiment and totally misbehaving in another. Oh well.

  1. Lovely! Definitely take part of the day off. No point in totally frying yourself.

  2. Don't apologize for a lack of blogging, as I am guilty of a lack of reading them. Your schedule fits mine perfectly.

    Great shrug!
