Marilee Shrug

Marilee is a comfortable bolero shrug worked in seed stitch. A splendid layering piece, easily transitioning from a tank to a turtleneck to a dress... or even as a bed jacket!

All the details are here for a chic, comfortable sweater – v neck, cropped length with curved fronts and the ties knit right in, and 3⁄4 length set-in sleeves.
