The Design

“Soft, snuggly, shimmery!”

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 tees and dresses! We’ve also created a free adaptation to our pattern to include two kiddo-sized versions—sure to keep your little one nice and toasty.

We knit this Shoulder Cozy in a combination of Rowan Brushed Fleece and Lana Grossa Brillino. A lace-weight, chainette strand with metallic glitter, Brillino brings the tiniest, subtlest shimmer to the super soft, generously fluffy chunky-weight Brushed Fleece. Together, they create a cuddly cozy with a quiet, twinkling touch!
