Title

Pair these two separates for a striking fashion combo on cold winter evenings, or wear them separately for a little glamour in an otherwise typical day.  The sleeveless tunic has a high neckline and a generous slit, and the shrug features a cowl neck collar and generous sleeves capped in bold cuffs.  The tunic is knit in Woolstok, and the cozy shrug is knit in Techno.

Kit includes pdf & printed pattern and selected yarn.  Kits with similar skein counts have been combined for kit purposes only.  Pattern includes 9 individual sizes of the shrug & tunic.  For yarn winding services, click here.
