Some lovely new things

I finished the Multiplicity scarf/shawl/wrap a while ago and just got to taking photos:

I'm a little in love with the yarn and colorway (Handpainted Merino with Silk in Pine Bark), though it's definitely more autumn than spring/summer.




And I finally finished the drew top a few days ago.



It'll be a nice summer top and also looks good under my white eyelet blazer and a few other cardis. Not sure if it is appropriate for work though!


Can I just mention that I'm terrible at crochet? I watched several videos about reverse single crochet and mine looks nothing like the pictures. Oh well. It's at least serving the function of tightening up the straps, if not looking decorative. I adore the little ruffle though, and how nicely the top fits as a result of the shaping and the way the bust is fitted at the very end. Che bella!
