Product Description
This knit is a pretty and practical piece to add to your wardrobe. A shrug with style, this garment includes a deep hood with gathers along the upper edges, a picot hem, short sleeves and a front closure clasp.
SIZING NOTES: S - 13" across front M - 16.5" across front L - 20" across front XL - 24" across front I use the CYC standards for sizing, but because this is a garment that doesn't go over the bust, the major measurements that affect it are the cross back measurement and top of arm measurement. These two numbers do vary over sizing, of course, but not as widely as the bust measurements. Thus: S size in the pattern corresponds to the XS & S M in the pattern is M & L the L in the pattern is XL & XXL and the XL in the pattern is XXXL and up.

Peat, Ghosts and Hurricane Lanterns by Teresa Gregorio
Overview
This downloadable PDF ebook contains three knitted bolero patterns designed by Teresa Gregorio as part of her YearLong YarnSong series. Published in October, this collection focuses on larger garments without accessories, offering intermediate-level knitting projects with a varying size range to accommodate different body types.
What Is Being Made
The collection features three bolero designs. Boleros are short, open-front jackets that typically cover the shoulders and upper back, making them versatile layering pieces suitable for various occasions and seasons. These patterns represent larger garment projects rather than smaller accessories, providing substantial knitting experiences for intermediate crafters.
Craft and Techniques
Primary Craft: Knitting
The patterns utilize intermediate-level knitting techniques appropriate for crafters with foundational skills who are ready to tackle more complex garment construction. The designs demonstrate Teresa Gregorio's approach to creating structured, wearable pieces with thoughtful sizing considerations.
Yarn and Materials
These patterns are designed for 4-ply yarn weight, which is a lightweight to medium-weight yarn suitable for creating garments with good drape and definition. Knitting needles appropriate for 4-ply yarn are required, though specific needle sizes and materials are detailed within the pattern PDF itself.
