Justice's Whirligig Shrug

Yarn: Caron Simply Soft Brites
Color: Mango
Content: 100% Acrylic
Care: Machine wash and dry
Needles: US 5
Pattern: Whirligig Shrug (Rav Link)
Modifications: I knit a size 12 because my gauge was smaller than the recommended gauge of the pattern. I knit with a smaller needle size because I didn't want the fabric to be that open.



This is the closest to the true color, it is a lovely bright orange, which Justice will love.

These aren't color accurate, but they show the texture better. Love all the texture on this.

This is the inside of the cable and seed stitch transition.

The lovely trim around the ned and sides.

I enjoyed knitting this and would recommend this as a shrug pattern for little kids! Very cute!
