crochet olympic update

i thought i'd post a picture of my progress so far on the shrug i'm making for the crochet olympics. the sleeves went really fast, but the trim is taking longer and it's a bit of a hassle turning it around all the time. i was going to make it long, but i saw at the mall yesterday that alot of the shrugs are little short things, so i may split the difference and make it about waist length. i've got to take it to have my daughter try it on and see how it looks on her and how long she would like for it to be. and i've still got to do the cuffs, which i think i'm going to make sort of flaired like the one in mrs. who's picture. i think the next shrug i make is going to be like the farmland shrug i saw in the clothing show and tell on c-ville. it is very pretty. anyhow, here's my shrug so far. and in case you're wondering, 33 days til spring!!
