Bolero was tooo big...but works?

I tried to make Ribbed Lace Bolero, but it turned out way too big. I still don't settle into a consistent gauge until too far into the project for me to care enough to frog it and start over. Ah well. I've worn it once and think it's cute enough...

I used some skeins that I bought at the Inselwolle yarn store on the island of Lindau, Germany. It's beautiful Baumwolle--cotton--actually from Germany! :)
