Modification Monday: Pomatoma-Shrug
Original Pattern: Pomatomus
Knitter Extraordinaire: Jen (Rav ID, blog)
Mods: Tramsformed the beautiful sock pattern into a stunning shrug. Details are on her project page, here.
What Makes This Awesome: There are so many wonderful sock patterns out there, but this is definitely one of the best. Jen's modification turns the beloved sock pattern into a beautiful shrug. I love the detail of the back, It looks like the perfect shrug to put on over a tank top of a bare summer dress. I would love to knit one just like this! And with her promising to add more information on the modification soon, this could mean that you could make a shrug out of almost any sock pattern- think of the possibilities!

If she could write the pattern now, would be great!
Great result.. Sounded very difficult though...
All I can say to this is "WOW." I love the shape in the back, and her yarn choice is so rich.
Yep, incredible mod. It's so cute, and Pomatomus is one of my favorite sock designs. It's been in my queue forever.
