This close-fitting shrug is knit cuff to cuff, then stitches are picked up around the opening and worked with short rows to add the collar and body.

It was designed out of the most inspiring blend of elements- practicality combined with style. The cozy long sleeves and long tail provide coverage while the open front frames, flatters, and prevents overheating.
