Just a Shrug

I've made significant progress on the Going Out Shrug (yes Mom, your socks are still in the works). Despite it being HEAVILY modified from the original pattern it appears to be turning out ok. I'm aiming to have it finished by Saturday. I still have a bit to go and I'm kind of nervous. Keep your fingers crossed for me, that I finish it (I can't really knit with crossed fingers). Also, I think the side I'm currently working on (the right side in the picture) might be slightly tighter knit. It's been a while since I worked on the first side, I can't recall now if I intentionally relaxed for it or not. Oh well, we'll see, hopefully it's not obscenely different.

Here's a pic:


Ignore the mess behind the shrug....
