The Golden Elegance Cropped Shrug is a graceful piece that harmonizes the opulence of golden hues with the refined allure of olive green. Crafted with a blend of alpaca for its inherent warmth and silk for luxurious softness, this piece offers cozy comfort in cooler weather while maintaining a delightfully light and airy feel. The shrug’s cropped length adds a playful touch, ideal for layering over dresses, tops or pairing with high-waisted bottoms, adding a chic accent to any ensemble.

The pattern instructions allows the shrug to be worn traditionally (as shown in the lower pictures) or inverted upside-down (as shown in the first pictures).
