    This looks amazing!

    I was wondering if you would mind telling us what size needles you used and maybe even what yarn… I’d really like to try this, but I’ve never made anything where I had to be worried about gauge, so I’m a little nervous about deciding how many to cast on, etc.!

    I’m a knitter and I’m impressed that you did this as your first gament instead of the classic schawl. Do wear it with pride, it’s beautiful!

    This is beautiful! I love shrugs/boleros! I’ve never been able to follow knitting patterns but I need to figure it out. Everytime I see a garment someone’s knit I gain a little more courage. Nice job! I love the color too!
