This versatile crocheted cardigan/shrug can be worn as a short-sleeved open cardigan or turned upside down and worn as a cropped-front collared shrug.

The shrug is constructed from a large granny square worked in the round with additional rows for the collar/ front panels. Note that most of the volume is at the back of the garment.
