Vintage Shrugs



My super-crafty bridesman has agreed to knit a shrug to go over my dress! We found inspiration (and cheap vintage patterns) on ebay.

  2. Hey, I'm sure this isn't anything new, but I always troll the little girls cardigans at thrift stores. You can often find one of kind, grandma-knit cardigans in soft, stretchy wool that make PERFECT shrugs for adults women (assuming that you don't have monster biceps). And don't even get me started on the great wood and mother-of-pearl buttons that seem to come standard. My latest one: $1.99 Cdn!
