Paton’s Wilderness has been disappearing from yarn shop shelves ever since Kirsty showed us her wonderful granny shrugs.
The inimitable Kirsty is providing a fantastic visual how-to for the granny shrug on her blog today, with both video instructions and step-by-step photographs. Anyone who prefers a traditional line-by-line written crochet pattern can find a pdf here. I’ll have daylight photos of my shrug for you tomorrow. Happy crocheting!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I knew it had to be this easy! I’ll be making shrugs!
Thank you very much for sharing this Lara – its printing as a I type. I am armed with my hook and yarn and can’t wait to make a start!
Thanks Lara, Ive already made a start but im sure this will still help me!
Thank you Lara and Kirsty. This is definitely a project I’m going to launch into very soon.
Thanks for putting it in a pdf Lara! Both of you are totally awesome! Love the pattern and can’t wait to make one too. Just need to get yarn and a gigantic hook.
Lara – love it – thanks for the link to the tutorial
Great how-to Lara!
Ah, you’re both good eggs! My hearty thanks for the sharing of the wisdom.
Thanks Lara (& Kirsty). This pattern makes it easier and I’m very grateful to you both. It’s a great look.

Thanks for the pattern. I LOVE the look of this sweater and hope I can work it in as a project for myself before Fall.
Is the pattern UK instructions?
Yes, the pattern is in Australian/UK terms. The pdf includes this information, as does Kirsty’s blog post/tutorial.
In Rnds 3, 4 ad 5 where it says … 3 ch (for tr), turn. 2 tr into “2-ch sp” … should this say … 2 tr into “1-ch sp”
also, in Rnd 5, there seems to be something missing before … 3tr into 2-ch sp, 2 ch, 3 tr into same 2-ch sp – in a couple of places …
Or is it me, reading the pattern wrong!

I love this shrug!! Having a problem understanding the 5th step did’nt come out like tnis one. Can you explain? Also can’t locate the video.
Thanks
Hi Patricia! The video is in Kirsty’s post, linked to above. I just checked it and it works fine. And I’m sorry, but I can’t explain the 5th round any further than I have! Without knowing what it is you don’t understand, I cannot explain! My apologies. Maybe have a look at Kirsty’s video tutorial. Good luck!
