Notes

This is just a rectangle/scarf, with the ends seamed to form a partial tube, so the wearer can insert her wrists and have the shrug drape over her shoulders. This one was made with the intarsia method - three stripes of adrienne vittadini paloma and two of artful yarns broadway.
I initially thought it might be for me and it was 3/4 sleeves, but it looked all the more smashing and loose and generous on a friend with a much smaller frame. It goes down to each wrist on her, and she can tuck her hands in the sleeves and use it like a muff as well.
It was a very successful project to use up yarn leftovers!
