Anthrolpologie Inspired Capelet This is my all time favorite shrug knitting pattern. The girl who pieced it together is brilliant. It’s the quintessential shrug: cute, versatile, simple, and fun. Better yet, it’s very easy to make and is a perfect gift come the holiday season.
Victorian Shrug This simple pattern is pretty, feminine, and yet practical — a lacy sweater with a lot of wearing potential. It’s perfect for adding a bit of style to a simple outfit. No matter your style, you can dress this up or down with funky or simple colors and yarn — another great and versatile pattern.
Wrath of Khan shrug And then on the other end of the spectrum, we have this shrug pattern. It’s a sci-fi inspired piece of clothing with an unusual but still stylish flair. The longer you gaze at this project, the more it’ll grow on you.
Patons Shoulder Shrug This pattern is a little bit different. Instead of a cardigan, it’s a half sweater, closer to a poncho. It still creates a beautiful and trendy piece of clothing, though, and it will make a fantastic addition to any wardrobe.
Child’s Ballet Shrug Obviously I need at least one pattern for children in my repertoire! This ballet inspired shrug is perfect for young girls of any age. Actually, I adapted it for my teenage daughter, and she loved it. It really would work well for young dancers to wear in between sets. But it’s just as cute with jeans and a T-shirt.
