Keep your arms and shoulders sparkly and warm or substitute a simpler yarn for everyday wear! This raglan shrug is knit from the bottom up, with a lacy back so the back of your dress [or your back!] can peek through.

Shimmer Shrug Pattern

I really love this shrug pattern. It is a little different than just a plain shrug, has the added warmth of a shawl collar and the interest of the different textured stitches and Homespun yarn. It is an easy skill level knit pattern so you should not be afraid to tackle it if you are a beginner knitter.

Homespun Shrug Pattern

This is a very pretty lacy shrug knit on very large needles so it is not only easy to knit but very quick to knit as well. Knit it in basic black or add a splash of colour to your basic black wardrobe. You will love this shrug!

Lost in the Music Shrug

This rib pattern shrug can go from day to evening without any difficulty. Little touches like the long cuffs and collar make it interesting to knit and fun to wear.

Ribbed Shrug Pattern

This is the perfect pattern for beginner knitters. It is called an unshaped shrug. There is no shaping in the shrug at all, yet at the same time the pattern introduces the beginner knitter to a couple of new techniques, with advice on picking up stitches.
