This knitting pattern is for a cozy cold-weather wrap- a shrug with extra-long sleeves and a detachable, oversized hood. The front of the shrug doubles as a scarf, it can be allowed to hang freely, draped around your neck and shoulders, even tied behind you. The hood attaches with buttons…

skills needed to knit this include:
cast on, knit, purl, increase, decrease, pick up stitches, knitting in the rounds.

very flexible sizing- the back (shoulder width) knits up to about 20 inches, and the upper arm circumference is 15 inches.

pattern includes a schematic.
