Blingola Shrug is an asymmetric cowl with a modern funnel neck. Who doesn’t need a bling-filled holiday season? Blingola Shrug is worked top-down in the round with a turned hem at the neck and short row shaping to create the asymmetry. Adorn those shoulders with some shimmer.

Blingola Shrug is knit with two fabulous yarns — Lola’s Blingola (a 100% cotton with multi-colored sequins) and Pascuali Puno, a scrumptious cotton/alpaca blend. The fabric these two yarns make together is perfection. They are knit together at a loose gauge, allowing the fabric to drape and the sequins to easily pop to the front of your work. Knitting with bling has never been so easy!
