Circlet Shrug
Introducing our stylish oversized shrug, designed for comfort and versatility. This shrug is intentionally created with a loose fit, but if you prefer a more tailored look, you can easily customize its size. To reduce the overall dimensions, simply remove one pattern repeat (24 stitches) from the back neck cast-on, resulting in a back that is 3 inches [7.5 cm] narrower.
Finished Measurements: Available in sizes 46 (58, 70)" (117 (147, 178) cm) at the bust, this pattern features a sample knitted in size 58" (147 cm) with an impressive 23" (58.5 cm) of positive ease. For optimal fit and comfort, we recommend achieving a suggested ease of 12—24" (30–60 cm) of positive ease, ensuring that you can move freely and stylishly.
Yarn Details: This shrug is crafted using Arbor by Brooklyn Tweed, a luxurious yarn made from 100% American wool. Each skein weighs 50 grams and contains 145 yards. Depending on the size you choose to knit, you will need 10 (12, 17) skeins, which translates to a total of 1450 (1740, 2465) yards (1326 (1591, 2254) meters) in DK weight yarn. The beautiful color Sashiko is featured in our sample, providing a stunning visual impact!
