Profumo di Lavanda is a shrug with a twist and drapery effect on the lower part of the body and a tighter fit around shoulders and arms.

The lower part of the body is a moebius worked loosely. In the upper part of the moebius stitches are picked up with a smaller needle to set up a bottom up construction with an original armhole construction which draws two lines on the upper part of the shoulders.

Here you find a video on the Moebius Cast On (in Italian).
Here you can read about my first experience with the Moebius.

S: 81 – 92 cm
