The shrug was just too big. The lace pattern (if you can even call it that, it was so boneheaded... yo, k2tog) was suuuuper stretchy and actually ended up about 2 inches too wide. Yes, yes, the Swatch Gods smote me again for ignoring them. Being the lazy ho I am, I did not want to rip out the arm (again) and reknit it.



So guess what! I just chopped it off.



Then a little grafty magic (guided by some very coherent step-by-step instructions)...




and I ended up with a very serviceable arm-covering. It does still bunch/sag a little at the neck, but overall I find that acceptable.
