So I think I mentioned how I had trouble with the washing of the original shrug?  Did I mention how it stretched when hand washed and then went matted and unusable after machine washing in a lingerie bag?  Well I had success hand washing the pink shrug which was made with bamboo/cotton blend, so I made a couple of cream ones in the same yarn.  I made two because I suspected the smaller one would fit for now, but as it is a summer garment and we are heading into the cooler months, I thought the bigger one would be a better option, ready to fit for next summer.  To my surprise the littler one was just too small, and the larger one fits for now, but won’t fit for next summer, so it’s back to the drawing board again!  Good thing I have more yarn, and a good thing I love making these!
