What Makes The Pumpkin Pie Cocoon Shrug Easy To Crochet?
Don’t worry, even if you have basic experience or it’s your first garment project, you can still give it a try. The shrug is built from a large rectangle and requires no shaping. You will crochet it using an easy four-row repeat pattern that results in a gorgeous lace texture. Once the main panel is ready, you only need to seam it for the arms and finish it off with a simple edging.
What Supplies Do I Need To Get Started?
To crochet this cocoon cardigan, you will need a 6 mm crochet hook and worsted yarn. You can go for the same brand the designer used for this pattern or choose your favorite medium-weight yarn.
The sample visible in the photos was made with Lion Brand Pound of Love in a cozy Pumpkin Pie colorway. It’s a 100% premium acrylic yarn that is super soft for the skin.
Is There A Written Pattern To Follow?
