Knitting - a Sixties "Shoulderette"


(edited to add the photo -- finally!)

The second one-skein pattern from the Columbia Minerva knitting book is a "shoulderette." This shrug is made in size medium (which probably translates to a modern 34-36 bust) and worked in worsted-weight yarn. For the time being a copy must be downloaded from my Flickr account, as the high winds here are playing old Hob with my Internet connection (we have a microwave link).

This is a quick little project that could probably be complete before Valentine's Day. Maybe in something soft and fuzzy?

Thanks for posting this pattern. It looks like a quick knit...may have to make one for my sister's bday.
