Suomuneuleperhettä täydentävät simppelit, mutta näyttävät neuleshortsit lämmittävät ihanasti. Shortseissa on korkea vyötärö ja suorat lahkeet. Neulotaan vyötäröltä alaspäin suljettuna neuleena, joten lahkeiden pituutta ja muotoa on helppo säädellä haluamallaan tavalla. Jos haluat tehdä lahkeet ohjetta pidempinä, varaa enemmän väriä C.
