Designed and knitted by Julee Latimer - artist and designer. Julie says that allowing the yarn to 'speak to me' is the way she comes up with georgeous designs for Lincraft - like this classically beautiful shrug.

Success in this pattern does not depend on perfect tension, therefore no tension details are given.
