White with Black Beads - Wrap/Shrug - for my Mother-In-Laws Christmas gift
Started: August 18, 2010
Finished: October 25, 2010 - rectangular part
Completely Done: November 30, 2010 - sewing 2 pieces together
Okay, I stopped making my shrug, so that I could make my Mother-In-Law this beautiful wrap/shrug. She loves to wear a lot of black and white so I decided to make her one. This is what it looks like done!!
She loves what I made her, however, the material is a bit heavy for her. I offered to make her a new wrap/shrug to replace the original Christmas gift I gave her. She would like it out of angora and the color she chose was black. I am so excited!! =)
I will post that when I get started on it!!

Beige Lace Wrap - Shrug
I didn't know how to read graphs in a knitting book, but I thought if I can do counted cross stitch, why couldn't I learn how to read graphs. I saw a sample Lace Shrug with beads at our store where I work. I wanted to make one for myself, so I challenged myself once again. I had left over red heart yarn and tackled the graph pattern. I finally got the graph pattern after I took it apart 7 times...yes, you read right 7 times. This is was it looks like so far I am more than half way done.
