The Wedding Shrug
Crochet Pattern
The Wedding Shrug was designed for weddings.
For the bride to wear at the reception, or for the mother
of the Bride and groom, and for bridesmaids to wear,
as well. It is perfect for any formal occasion, as well as,
with a sundress or tank top for casual wear.
I designed this pattern using yarn Bee Soft Secret
From Hobby Lobby. Any Med (4) yarn of your
choice will work just fine. I think it would ne lovely in an
Ombre for summer.
What is a Shrug?
Some people call them boleros. Boleros are usually longer.
A shrug is a close fitting cardigan or jacket, that is designed
short, so that only the arms and shoulders are covered.
Sort of a wrap with arm holes.
The main thing in getting a good fit is to measure as you go.
You can measure yourself, or a shirt to sweater that you know fits well. You need a back measurement for width,
and upper arm measure for length.
