Interesting texture and simple ribbing combine in this lovely minimalist shoulder wrap that might classify as something between a shoulder cozy and a poncho. Forager can be worn around the top of the shoulders with rich, deep folds, or pulled down over the shoulders as a capelet. If you enjoy the slipped stitch texture, you might consider its sister pattern, the Forager Cowl.

Worked in the round from the bottom up, the Forager Wrap features clever textural details that catch the eye. The only real focus happens right at the beginning, so you can enjoy long stretches of stockinette for a quick finish. The pattern ends at the neckline with a wide rib.
