Crochet Bolero / Shrug

A little girl's crochet shrug with granny squares around the bottom and a vintage button at the neck. Worked in soft 8ply acrylic yarn on a 3.50mm hook. Just right for over a long sleeved tee shirt or skivy, for the cooler autumn days ..... spring days for northern friends. Inspired by the 70's trend.

  2. Hi Vidu ..... Thankyou for your interest in the shrug.
    These creations are made ' off the top of my head '
    and usually I don't write a pattern unless for a specific purpose - as it takes a lot of time and effort.
    With knowledge and experience of crochet and knitting, built up gradually, through trial and error, you can design and make things to your own ideas.
    best wishes - Shirley.
