I am a 37 year old, mom of 2 cuties. I am now the proud owner of a bachelors in psychology!! WooHoo!! To keep myself sane I drink coffee and knit! That way I don't think too much about missing my hunny and other things!

Shrug....finally done
I have finally finished my shrug....I am not that happy with it. :(
Ok, as you can see, we are different sizes and it almost fits us the same?!?!?! This shrug gave me fits to make it. The 1st 10 to 15 frogs were a total learning process, since I have been self taught on patterns. But the froggings after that were pure agony. I even extended the lace pattern 2 times, so the back would have been even shorter if I had not! The sleeves should have been longer, according to the picture on the pattern. Oh, well, it is a nice lace pattern, I will have to make another with some tweaking and will make it in a solid, like in the picture of the pattern. Regardless, my daughter loves it, the day I gave it to her she wore it all day long, and wore it for two days straight to school after that! Once it gets colder, she will wear it more.
I have a hat and scarf for my fiance' to make, since in Korea is getting cold, and he has made a request. And some babies are coming and blankets have been requested as well. My school work is priority, but I am squeezing in my knitting as well!
