Light Crochet Shoulder Shrug

A light crochet shoulder shrug is a great accessory in warmer months. Add to a dress for an easy transition into night. The shrug from Bernat Yarns is crocheted in a silky bamboo yarn, so it's soft and comfortable to wear.  The openness of the shrug also makes this cute accessory very lightweight, so it's the perfect way to cover your shoulders if you're wearing a summer dress or tank top.
