It's hard to find knitting patterns that appeal to teens (or at least to my teen) but I found a terrific Sirdar pattern book called "California Girls" that features their Luxury Soft Cotton DK. I'd bought the pattern and yarn when Jill and I went on our big yarn shopping spree. Julia picked out this shrug pattern from the book, and I like the finished garment so much I might even borrow it from her one day. I must say that Sirdar has the best pattern books for kids and teens. I have a number of them, all well used, though the ones with baby and toddler patterns are collecting some dust now.

Looks great! I can't believe how quickly you get your crafts done. I'm so slow.
