This project has been mostly done since February 4, but I realized after I wore it that the sleeves were different lengths, so I set it aside while I worked on a couple of other projects knowing that I would have to come back and fix it. I finally got around to fixing it today. I undid the bind off on the central opening, raveled back and picked up the stitches, then I undid the sleeves, one at a time. I had done a three needle bind off, which I had decided was too tight, so I decided to replace that with grafting. Once I got both of the sleeves done I redid the knitting around the opening and did the final bind off. I'm probably going to work some cuffs to add a little length to the sleeves. This one did not come out as long as the Gazania Shrug.
Pattern: Traveling Zebra by Louise Robert modified to be a shrug
Yarn: Bis-sock by Biscotte & Cie
