GINGER TWIST STUDIO
SEPTENNIAL TWIST SHRUG KIT
£120.00
A kit to make a shrug, just choose your size to suit your style. The perfect accessory for when the sun sets and and a chill falls. Dress it up or dress it down, the soft draping fabric will do it all.
A celebration of Ginger Twist Studio's 7th Birthday, the Septennial Twist Shrug is designed with two of Ginger's Hand Dyed favourite yarns held together to create a beautifully soft and draping fabric.
The shrug is knit sideways as a flat rectangle then folded in half and partially sewn to create armholes. Stitches are then picked up around the sleeve and body openings to be finished off with ribbing.
The colourway shown in the sample pictured is 'Voyager.'

Sizing:
The shrug should be worn with a loose fit. Two sizes are included in the pattern: Small: sleeves reach the elbow and the shrug length sits at the lower back. Large: sleeves reach mid-forearm and the shrug length sits over the bum. The following dimensions are actual body measurements which are relevant for both the large and small size:
- Shoulder Width: 35-45 cm / 14-18”
- Bust: 75-150 cm / 30-60“
- Arm Circumference (just below elbow): 20-30 cm / 8-11.75“
And then you can use your leftovers from the shrug to make the Septennial Mitts to match if you so choose!
