Here she is!



I'm about half-way through the back of the shrug. I'm using the Silk/Merino handpaint I bought from Over the Rainbow Yarns. The vendor calls it a worsted, and it did give me 5st/in on size 7s, but it was an airy and drapey fabric, so I'm doing this on size 5s at 5.75 st/in, which gives me a nice stretchy fabric.

Since it's a handpaint, there's some variation between the skeins (the green and pink is much more prominent in some of them), so I'm doing the swap skeins every two rows thing.
