I'm making one for my granddaughter. She is a junior size small. I saw a Chill Chaser by Alchemy/Gina Wilde and think that this could easily be what I want but it does not come in under the breast far enough to add ties. Your opinion on ths would be greatly appreciated. Helen I had in mind, one that has a tie that ties just below the breasts. I’m making one for my granddaughter.

I love the Triple S Shrug. I have been knitting all my life but up to the last two years relied on a knit shop to point me in the right direction. However about two years ago I started ordering material on line and just going for it and so far so good. The pattern of te Triple S Shrug looks complicated after it has been knitted up. Will I be okay with this. I do crochet as well. Thank you very much, Tommie Hello. I love the Triple S Shrug.

I fact, it's an elongated stitch-- a variation on the type I discuss here: <a href="http://www.thedietdiary.com/blog/lucia/359" rel="nofollow">elongated garter stitch</a> I'd advise just practicing that stitch on a swatch to see if you enjoy knitting it. You'll need to read the instructiosn for the crochet trim and gauge if you know how to do that-- once again, practice on a swatch. But, honestly, if you've knit a fair number of things, you can probably knit that shrug! The main knitted stitch on the triple S shrug is very simple.

Several of the hand knitted patterns are great but have quite a lot of machine yarn and would like to use it up. Please help. I’m looking for a machine knitted pattern for a shrug.
