Tailored Easy Weekend Shrug
Re-designed and improved version of my popular Easy Weekend Shrug knitting pattern by Hand Knit Artisans. Now with tailored sleeve shaping for a sophisticated fit. A lovely, warm and chunky long sleeved shrug, simple to knit and makes up a mile a minute. If you are a fairly fast knitter, you could have this finished in a weekend.
.
The differences between this one and the original Easy Weekend Shrug:
Tailored EW Shrug (this one)
- Uses larger knitting needles - a
softer feel and fabric - Shaped sleeves providing a more sophisticated and tailored look - would work well in a more dressy scene - even great for winter weddings or career / office area as well as casually with jeans
- Different 1x1 rib neck and cuffs
Color in the photo: Dark gray knit in Lion Brand Hometown “charcoal” 100% acrylic.
Original EW Shrug (the other one)
- Still knits up fast but on slightly small needles, a little firmer fabric result
- No sleeve shaping so a little more casual lower arm, - no counting rows!
- 2x2 rib cuffs and neck edging

Easy to customize to your measurements
A great pattern to do over the weekend - works well to wear with some nice jewelry and career wear, or casually with jeans down at the coffee shop.
Great for teens on upward.
Would be lovely as a winter wedding shrug too.
