Butterfly Shrug Completed

Well I completed my Butterfly Shrug a couple of days ago. It is very pretty. But somehow I remember the one at the Loop Yarn being bigger. I should have added one more row of triple crochets and that probably would have worked. The color is absolutely gorgeous. I bought some more Bamboo yarn in the Sahara colorway. I've all ready started the second shrug. I had debated about making the shrug in the size medium but decided against it. I am just going to add either one or two more rows of the triple crochets at the bottom to see if that does the trick. I had a hard time deciding on the color. If the yarn shop would have had tequila which is the color that I used for the first shrug I would have gotten that. I do have over half of skein left of the tequila and Mindy (the shop owner) said that she has some tequila coming in. When she gets the Tequila colorway in, I am going to buy one more skein and make another one. I really like the color but want to make one that I am going to be happy with. I am getting addicted to that new yarn shop in town. I went back there on Saturday. I bought some Opal sock yarn, some Rowan Tapestry, which I am going to cast-on a scarf. I am going to make Sally my receptionist a scarf for Christmas. I also bought the two skeins of Bamboo. The store in Kenosha pretty much carries the yarns that I like. She doesn't have a lot of Noro in stock but that's ok. At the moment I have enough Kureyon to make 3 Booga bags.
