FO: Confection Baby Shrug

Hey, I finished knitting something! This almost never happens!

It’s the Confection Baby Shrug, although I did some number crunching in order to knit this up with Cascade 220 Superwash, which is a much finer gauge of yarn than the pattern calls for. I’m really glad I took the time to do the math, [...]
