Summer Affair

Description

The delicate effect of lace weight yarn is hard to resist. However if you dont wear shawls this shrug makes a great alternative. Worked as a rectangle of lace, sleeves are grafted together and the edging around the body of the shrug is worked directly from the remaining stitches. For added impact a garter stitch short-row ruffle is worked at the back of the shrug and scalloped edging is worked around the opening. Full details of the following techniques are given: Crochet Cast on Elastic Bind off Grafting Wrap and Turn

Sample is shown in Habu Textiles XS-45 20/3 Bamboo in size Medium. Other listed yarns are suggested alternatives.
