The Hamaca Shrug is a beautiful, lightweight shrug that is perfect for layering over any outfit. This simple vintage knitting pattern is easy to follow, even for beginners, and can be customized to fit any size. The shrug is made using a simple lace stitch that creates a delicate, openwork fabric.
Materials
- 2 skeins of fingering weight yarn (approximately 400 yards)
- US size 6 (4 mm) knitting needles
- Tapestry needle
Gauge
20 stitches and 28 rows per 4 inches in lace stitch.
Instructions
With size 6 needles, cast on 80 stitches.
Row 1: Knit 2, *yo, knit 2 together, repeat from * to end of row.
Row 2: Purl all stitches.
Rows 3-26: Repeat rows 1 and 2.
Row 27: Knit 2, *yo, knit 2 together, repeat from * to last 2 stitches, knit 2.
Row 28: Bind off all stitches loosely.
Assembly
Weave in any loose ends. Fold the shrug in half lengthwise, with the right sides together. Sew up the sides, leaving a small opening for the armholes. Turn the shrug right side out and enjoy!
Variations
The Hamaca Shrug can be customized in several ways to create a unique look. Here are a few ideas:
- Change the yarn. The shrug can be made with any type of fingering weight yarn. A wool blend will create a warmer shrug, while a cotton blend will create a lighter, more breathable shrug.
- Change the needle size. Using larger needles will create a more open, lacy fabric, while using smaller needles will create a denser, more opaque fabric.
- Add a border. A simple border can be added to the edges of the shrug to give it a more finished look. A garter stitch border or a picot stitch border would both be lovely.
- Change the length. The shrug can be made any length you like. Simply add or subtract rows from the pattern to adjust the length.
The Hamaca Shrug is a beautiful, versatile piece that can be dressed up or down. It is a great project for knitters of all skill levels and can be customized to fit any taste. So grab your needles and yarn and get started on your own Hamaca Shrug today!
