As promised Turtle Neck Shrug on me

And my girls don't look that big! I love this. I may make another one. But not anytime soon. Sorry son.
I received my final package from my Better Pal. OH MY GOD! Take a look

That is Alchemy yarn and Noro - 100% Viscose baby!!! Guitar earrings, a necklace with a guitar charm, a cool makeup bag with skulls and guitars. The shoe is filled with confetti that you put in the bath tub!
Is she not the best? Oh, but that is not all

It has been killing me. I want to cast on for some of these socks! But I vowed (to myself) that I wouldn't start another sock until I finished the pair from July. She also sent me a creepy clown card!
Oh but that is not all

Roving to dye with Kool Aid!!!! (I finally figured that there is no "e" on Aid - dur)
Okay, just when you thought you could go to another blog and catch up on your reading.....

She made ME a scarf! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! And she said I was the inspiration for this scarf! You can buy the pattern at Knit Picks.
Wanna know who she is?
Susan. Thank you so much!

Your shrug looks fun with the varigated yarn. That turtleneck shrug is pretty wearable, isn't it? I find myself wearing the one from Stitch Ya Neck Out all the time. Hope you enjoy yours!

It looks great! I'm so glad that you modeled it. The girls look perfectly proportional.
And what a fab package!

Beth! I love that scarf. I saw it in the Knit Picks catalog. I was thinking about making it for someone for Christmas.

Oh. My. God.
I love the shrug. Love it more than anything. It is fantastic!
And I am crazy jealous over all your gifts! Yay for you!

Love your TN shrug -- that last pose by your son is priceless, though. (I see blackmailing in his future!)
