Cheshire Shrug

Ever struggle with shawls dragging on the ground, or having to tie them around your waist or shoulders? This shawl is different. It has sleeves! The sheer embodiment of the Cheshire Cat himself. It’s a shawl, it’s a sweater, it’s a wrap all in one. The pattern is definitely a morning sunshine, cup of tea, travel with you, kind of knit. The cuffs are dynamically designed to create a lovely ribbed edge, and they broaden to a six row repeated pattern. Very therapeutic and a bit eccentric at times. As always, sized to include….you!
