When I get chilly I like to put something over my shoulders, but I don’t always want my arms covered, or bulky sleeves getting in my way.

The Barcelona Knit Shrug is perfect for times like these. I made mine with shorter sleeves, that end just above my elbow on the back of my arm when I am working. No more sleeves in the way when typing, or writing.

Don’t worry, if you prefer full length sleeves, this pattern gives you directions for both options!

The best part about the Barcelona Knit Shrug is the convertible aspect. When your legs get chilly, but your shoulders and arms aren’t, simply unbutton the sleeves and you have the perfect lap blanket.
