But it's very similar to the shrug in the Fitted Knits book. Thanks for your kind words! Hi Jamie– I just knit the shrug using top-down raglan construction.

I can't find any mention of it. I so want to knit a Noro shrug like the one you have - can you point me to the site that gave instructions for it?

I would love to confront my "new math" teachers about their methods... as a 50 year old I still fight the math fight. I am trying to get past the block that I know I have and class room rudness never helped, ever. The tank is gorgeous as is the get up. I met you on ravelry. Keep on keeping. e hi there, At least you got to speak to the math man about his position.

I really like the entire outfit put together in these pictures. I like the Basalt tank (though I don't have the book) but wasn't totally sold on it until I saw your pictures. You look really great in this and now I want to knit it for sure! Also, did you follow a pattern for your shrug or piece it together yourself? All very cute!

The tank is one of those patterns that I keep coming back to, but I Think I'd probably want to make some modifications.
