Taking its name from the Hawai’ian word for a sea turtle, this simple shrug is sized for newborn-6 months (the sleeves are 6.5” long and it’s 7” across the back). I designed it as a transitional piece for the in-between time of cool mornings and warm afternoons. The chevron pattern adds texture and interest, without over-complicating the easy construction.
