Here it is:
...and here's the back:
It's not really wonky ~ it just looks that way because I'm swinging my arm around to take the shot. It's really hard to take good photographs of a garment while you're wearing it! I'm really happy with it...and a bit sorry that the pattern isn't available anymore because it's such a simple, cleverly constructed design.
When I've finished writing all my reports for work I'm planning on making more clothes. I've just bought this beautiful kettle dyed wool from yarnomat to crochet a butterscotch cardigan with.
I've also got my eyes on susana's jacket from the latest Yarn magazine. (If you open up the link, it's the apricot coloured cardie.) It is designed for beginner knitters and is made out of gorgeous, and very reasonably priced, handspun wool from wool connection.
And, speaking of things handmade, I recently received a beautiful hand stitched book cover that I bought over at indigo blue designs. It was all wrapped up gorgeously:
and will be perfect for knitting and crochet notes!
Have a great week, everybody.

I love this shrug!! I know I shouldn't but I am green with envy. Your photo session made me smile, quite an aerobic workout and they are STILL straight and in focus!
Masny thanks for your kind words and I am tickled pink to think that my efforts are now living halfway around the world.
