A comfortable, slouchy shrug, perfect for layering with its relaxed fit, shawl collar and full sleeves for ease of movement and shawl like comfort. Wear it upside down for less neck and a chic curved hem!

A plush chenille yarn ensures light weight snugliness, but try your favorite chunky weight for a different look.

Shrug is knit in one piece, with diagrams to aid in seaming
