The Solka Shrug is a cozy, versatile layering piece worked in a simple yet striking stitch pattern. The fabric forms soft ridges that give it beautiful texture and natural drape. Constructed as a single piece with short rows, it is rated as intermediate, but even adventurous beginners will find the pattern “easy” due to the video tutorials included. Whether styled casually over jeans or dressed up for an evening out, the Solka Shrug adds effortless elegance to any outfit.
