Oops

Unfortunately, the knitting frenzy has met with my great enemy - not actually fitting.
I was in a diligent mood when I started the Two Tone Shrug from Fitted Knits, so I used the called for yarn (I usually substitute cheaper stuff). I even did a gauge swatch, and got R to measure between my shoulders. The warning flags should have been raised when his measurements meant that I was knitting the second biggest size. I rationalized it to myself be saying that I have broad shoulders. Nope. Not that broad. I knitted something that is (conservatively) 3 sizes too big for me.

I really like it though, so after Xmas I really intend to re-knit it.
