Bold & Beautiful
by Cathy Carron
the bold and the beautiful
Super-chunky yarn and a graphic color pattern create a showstopping look.
BULKY FAIR ISLE SHRUG
This boldly patterned shrug works up quickly. The sleeves are knit from side to side and then woven together in the center front, after which stitches are picked up around the neck opening for the collar. Inspired by Native American textiles, it’s makes a totally contemporary look.
