A 2-colour version of my Tunisian Cocoon Shrug, where the textured Tunisian Reverse Stitch is also done in a contrasting colour.

Worked in Tunisian Crochet and made from a single rectangle, once it is sewn together the contrasting Tunisian Reverse Stitch borders form around the body and the sleeve.

It’s simple shape allows it to suit everyone and any outfit.

There is also a single colour version of this Shrug

Techniques
Intarsia is used to achieve the border that will be around the sleeve.
You will need to do a special colour change from the Left Intarsia Section to the Main Body of the Shrug, in order to do the Tunisian Reverse Stitch required for the next row - a photo tutorial is provided in the pattern on how to achieve this technique.
