Cropped Y2K Bolero Shrug

This project is worked as a long rectangle of double crochets that create the square mesh look. The neckline is created using changes and skipped stitches. I made it extra long in the sleeves and hand-washed with wool detergent before blocking it. One side is predominately color Amphibian with the neckline detail in Boomerang. The other side is Boomerang with the neckline detail in Amphibian. I also added a small charm of Minnesota at the end of one of the sleeves since I bought the materials and crocheted the whole project on a family vacation to Ely, MN. This is partly why I don’t have process photos only completed project photos!
