6-23-24 Pattern re-release! Now updated for size inclusivity and options for bust size modification.

Sitting by the water and watching the tides ~constant as the air we breathe. I hope this garment provides you with a bit of warmth to enjoy whatever space brings you hope and peace of mind.
This shrug would be comfortable sitting at the beach, relaxing in an Adirondack chair, visiting Cityside with friends and family, sitting watching a game, or dressing cover up for your next wedding or celebration!

Shrug starts with a provisional cast on and is knit flat to form a rectangle shape. Provisional cast on sts and working sts are joined to work in the round to form shrug body and border. Sleeves are knit in the round after completing body of shrug by picking up sts from the rectangle sides.
