This is a two tone shrug. The shrug hugs your body for comfort and warmth on those early or late summer days that come with a hint of chill. The design is also really chic--I want to make a few in different color combinations!
Finished 06/04/09.
Pattern found in: Fitted Knits, "Two-Tone rubbed shrug."
Modifications: I took a risk by using wool for the body and the cottonease yarn for the rubbed parts because I liked the color combination. It's still probably a bad idea to mix fibers, but it worked out okay in this case. I also ran out of the cotton yarn so I bound off with a off-pink wool. This accident was a boon--I got a decorative edging that tied together the different fibers.
