Lunaria Shrug

This shrug is worked seamlessly from the top down. Using a saddle shoulder construction and german short rows, you shape a soft boat neck and fitted shoulders. After putting the sleeves on hold, the body is only worked for a few centimeters before casting off. The sleeves are worked straight in stockinette stitch and are finished with a twisted rib cuff and a bell sleeve detail in stockinette stitch. **Sizes**: 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) **To fit bust circumference**: 75 (85) 95 (105) 115 (125) 135 (145) cm / 30 (34) 38 (42) 46 (50) 54 (58)’’ **Bust circumference Shrug**: 65 (75) 85 (95) 105 (110) 120 (130) cm / 26 (30) 34 (38) 42 (44) 48 (52)’’ **Negative ease**: approx. 10 cm/ 4’’ for sizes 1 to 5; approx. 15 cm / 6’’ for sizes 6 to 8. **Needles**: 3.5 mm (US 4) and 3.0 mm (US 2.5) circular needles or needle size needed to achieve gauge. **Gauge**: 24 sts x 34 rows = 10 cm x 10 cm / 4’’ x 4’’ using 3.5 mm (US 4) needles in stockinette stitch after washing and blocking. **Yarn**: Lamana ‘Lima’ (200 m / 219 yds per 50 g), 50% merino wool, 25% baby alpaca, 25% silk 200 (200) 200 (250) 250 (300) 350 (350) g model in colour 47 ‘muskat’ *or* Lamana ‘Premia’ (300 m / 328 yds per 25 g), 60% super kid mohair, 40% silk 150 (150) 175 (200) 200 (225) 225 (250) g model in colour 08 ‘curry’ --> Premia held double! **Notions**: Stitch markers, darning needle. **Lima Version**: I am wearing Size 3 with a negative ease of about 3 cm. **Premia Version**: I am wearing Size 2 with a negative ease of about 13 cm.
