The Design
“A soft, airy cozy!”
This Shoulder Cozy is a capelet, poncho, and cowl all in one! Gather it up around your neck when putting on your coat or slip it down over your shoulders when you’re coat-free. It’s perfect for a bit of warmth over sleeveless tees and dresses!
We knit this version of the Shoulder Cozy in perhaps the softest yarn in Isager’s range—Soft. This aran-weight yarn has a chainette-style strand made of organic Pima cotton blown through with downy alpaca fibers. The result is a lightweight, airy yarn with a gentle, velvety halo! Soft is a great choice for knitters who love a fluffy look, but find fuzzy mohair yarns a little too ticklish.
