Actually, I think this more of a shrug. It fits comfortably enough, although I must say that the shortness feels very weird, having never worn a shrug before.
I don't generally photograph very well, so this was the best we could do. Note the Wavy Sock in the bottom right hand corner? Bonus feature.
Pattern: Anthropologie Inspired Capelet
Size: 10-1/2" circumference upper arm
Yarn: One ball Lion Brand Wool-Ease Chunky (Grass 130)
Gauge: 12s = 4"/10 cm on Us #11 dpns ( I should have used straights on everything but the sleeves)
I like this pattern. I started it Saturday evening while watching some videos and finished it this morning. It doesn't show in the picture, but this color of Wool-Ease is actually kind of heathered. I wasn't sure how much would be needed, so I bought two balls. Any suggestions for what I should do with the remaining ball?

Hey great job! Nice to have a project finish in a short amount of time. I have admired that pattern before - what size would you say the directions are for? Or is a truly one size fits all?
I love your quickie fo! Inspires me to dig mine out and finish someday soon. Its a very nice picture and the capelet looks great on you. Perfect choice of color.
Very cute! Ummm, what to do with the extra ball... A hat? Some mittens? A blanket for your cute patootie cat?
that's purty!
