Oak Island Shrug
I bought the yarn for this pattern while on a vacation to Oak Island, NC. The yarn really reflected the colors of the beach in early September when we visited. The local yarn shop was beautiful and I enjoyed shopping. Although my visit was brief, I enjoy wearing this shrug and being reminded of my vacation. I hope you’ll enjoy wearing it when the breeze cools your shoulders.

Color B: 1 skein Colinette Giotto, Colorway 127

US 10 needles for cuffs, US 11 circular needle, 24”-32” length

Size:
Finished shrug measures 60” cuff to cuff and 21” high at center back.
