The Trellis Tunic - from Crochet Today April 2007 issue

I am so excited to do this project, I started this last month with this yarn - Scheepjeswol - Superwash Zermatt, but after doing the first half of the tunic, the drape looks drag.

So I have to wait for this month to buy another set of yarn, this time I bought Neveda Skol

Here is the full shot the tunic I'm making, and hopefully be able to finish it before the month ends. I'm kinda stuck on the shape armholes, and already seek help from Coats and Clark for clarification of the pattern instructions. I just hope I don't mess this up. I am really looking forward of wearing this tunic on the coming Holiday. And if ever I finished this tunic, this will be my very first crochet tunic. Can't wait to finish this one.

I also wanted to share this with you guys, I'm not sure if this is a boucle yarn, it didn't state what kind of yarn except that it's part acrylic, and part wook. What do you think I should make of this? I think I will make a shrug with this yarn.
