Await Shrug

Introducing the AWAIT Shrug, a beautifully simple and stylish side-to-side shrug that is perfect for layering over your favorite tees and dresses. This cozy garment is designed with a basic rectangle body that allows for maximum versatility, complemented by stretchy ribbed cuffs for comfort and style. The AWAIT Shrug features an easy-to-memorize Rick-Rack Lace pattern, making it a delightful project for knitters looking to gain confidence in their skills.

To create the sleeves, simply seam the ends of the rectangle, and then pick up stitches to work the ribbed edging in the round. The sizing for the AWAIT Shrug is incredibly flexible, allowing you to easily adjust it to your preferences right on the needles. For the most comfortable fit, we recommend measuring your bicep circumference to determine the best sleeve size to cast on, rounding up if you're between sizes. Additionally, the length of the shrug across the back can be easily modified to accommodate both smaller and wider silhouettes, making this pattern truly customizable.

The AWAIT Shrug is offered in a range of sizes with finished sleeve measurements: 11 (12.25, 13.75, 15, 16.25){17.75, 19, 20.25, 21.75}” / 27.5 (31, 34, 37.5, 41){44, 47.5, 51, 54} cm.

For reference, the model is wearing a sleeve size of 13.75” / 34 cm, showcasing how versatile this design truly is.
