trial baby shrug

I had a ball and a bit (maybe 75g?) leftover from my cardigan in the “little linen” colour that looks kind of pearly, so I thought I’d give the baby shrug pattern a try.  I knew I wouldn’t get it completely finished before I ran out, but enough to get an idea of how the pattern worked up and how easy/hard it would be.  I love the pattern!  It’s easy peasy and very quick to do.  And we were able to try it on my little friend to check for fit and whether her mum liked it, and the outcome is that it’s a success!

As you can see it’s not finished, but is missing the lacy edge to the sleeves, and a few more rows to the body, and the band around the neck with the button closure.  But enough to get the idea anyway.  The colour looked lovely on my little friend too.  Still waiting for the pink to come in stock in cotton/bamboo and when that comes in I can order another ball to finish this one off too.
