The elegant shrug jacket pictured at left was created by one of London’s topline designers. It is made of simply crocheted circles linked together with spider-like motifs.

The pattern combines both crochet (motif body - UK Crochet terminology) and knit (cuffs) elements.

The body motifs are crocheted; and the cuffs stitches are picked up and knitted in ribbing, and seamed.
