All-Blogger Shrug
My inaugural blog photo! It is very blurry but I was taking pics at night. At least this shows the yarn I used a little bit. The un-pattern I used was from Purly Whites, and can be found here. The only change I made was knitting the two arm sections in the round -- no seaming for Zarita! I also didn't put any edging on the wrists -- I ran out of yarn.
The yarn is ONline Linie 76 Cup -- everything on the tag is in German, so I'm not really sure what the color name is. It is a mostly burgandy colored yarn with orange, pink and blue threads running alongside and occasionally changing to beige, green, red, or blue. It sounds really gaudy but the color changes are fairly subtle. I like the way it looks when it is knitted up. It's about 50% wool, 50% poly -- I don't think it's too scratchy, but it's been too warm to wear it yet.
