I have just finished sewing up my NYCO. I made a shrug out of Brilla and Naturally Woodland 12-Ply. Just in time to wear it to a party tonight. Hooray!
The shrug is basically a rectangle. With size 3 needles, I cast on 49 stitches and did a K1, P1 rib for 3 1/2 inches with just the Brilla alone. Then I added the Woodland and knit in stockinette on size 15 needles until I reached the length I wanted. I then switched back to the Brilla alone for the other cuff. I finished by sewing up the sleeves using the mattress stitch for the very first time.
