Coorie is an old Scottish word meaning to cuddle or snuggle in. It has also recently become a lifestyle trend similar to Hygge but relating more to enjoying the outdoors and the simple pleasures this brings.

This large wrap will let you Coorie in when you need warmth and cosiness and keep you warm as you enjoy some simple outdoor living.

The main pattern is a simple combination of knit and purl stitches, with a striking stepped edge on either end to finish it off.
