During the test for Chianti Top, some testers started to talk about the tiny straps of the top and the fact that someone doesn’t love to have naked shoulders. I thought that a shrug could do the work, plus the top and the shrug can be a great two pieces set. This shrug has the same lace pattern and the same yarn of Chianti top. They can be worn toghether or not. Knit in pure linen, this shrug covers your shoulders while keeping you fresh in the hottest days of summer
