May 19, 2006 Shrug- mistake free version

After almost completing one sleeve of the I Do Shrug, I realized that my attempt to add stitches within the lace pattern did not go well. Rather than trying to figure out how to make it look as thought the pattern was continuing, I either just knitted or just purled- resulting in a big block of checkerboard pattern within the lace- hmmm...it didn't quite blend in. I decided to start the other sleeve to see if I could get it to go a little bit more smoothly- I think it has. Now my progress is as follows:

sleeve 1: completed, and now taken about 1/3 of the way out
sleeve 2: almost completed

The good sleeve is on top, bad one is on the bottom. Hmmm...guess my photo editing skills could use some refiding. Once I've finished the new, mistake free side, I'll rip out the rest of side 1 and do it over. Fun!
