This stylish shrug, the second design in the Boxes and Buds series, arises from the same lace rectangle as its companion design, the Boxes and Buds stole.

However, unlike the stole, the shrug is graded in three sizes to comfortably fit a wide range of body shapes. No matter the size chosen, no more than three skeins of 100 gram sock/fingering weight yarn are needed.

Construction on this design is super easy, and after a quick edge/neck opening is worked along the open front side, it is ready for its place in a maker’s wardrobe rotation of most-used pieces.
