Zlato Shrug
Shrug, also known as a Cocoon Style Cardigan, is a versatile piece perfect for layering on any occasion. This design, called Zlato, the Serbian and Croatian word for gold, is inspired by the rich golden shade of the yarn used.
The shrug is worked flat in a simple repeating pattern. Once the main piece is complete, the sides are seamed to form sleeves, and a ribbed border is crocheted all around for a clean, polished finish.
The pattern is suitable for advanced beginners, and includes written and chart instructions.
