“Shrugs” is a very simple garment designed to provide you with an extra set of sleeves! The finished garment is the perfect accessory for staying warmer. It’s small enough to pop into your bag “just in case.” The sample was knitted in bright colors for a pop, but this pattern could also be worked in neutrals for a timeless wardrobe staple.

The sample was made using Hedgehog Fibres “Dada” and “Sunshower,” alternating colorways every two rows.

This pattern is marked “adventurous beginner” and can be tackled by confident beginners who have mastered the basics. Techniques included: K, P, M1R, M1L, K2tog, SSK, and joining in the round.
