What was your inspiration?

I made my first Kimono Shrug many years ago. I wanted to have something to wear in my frigid office that wouldn't get in my way as I seriously multi tasked my way through the day, but still keep my shoulders warm. Now I have many of these and they look good with jeans, skirts, dresses, whatever. I thought it was time to write it all down!

What are you most proud of?

This is a great beginner project. Easy to follow instructions that will build confidence with a common stitch and work up super fast so boredom doesn't set in.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Just go with it! There is no guage to worry about and it doesn't get easier than that!

I live in Montana and we never know what the weather is doing! The one thing we DO know is the office is NEVER warm enough! Thanks for your encouraging comment!
