Hug You-Me is an easy-to-wear woolly hug… wrap up yourself or someone you love!
Hug You-Me has an addictive construction that will keep you knitting. The shrug starts from the center out. First, a square is worked in the round for the back. Each sleeve is then created by working a flat panel out to the cuff. Next, stitches are picked up along the sleeve and a panel is worked to join the sleeve into the round. Finally, stitches are picked up all the way around the inside of the shrug to pull it all together with a collar that has subtle short row shaping.
