A lightweight summer shrug that’s worked flat as a simple rectangle, then seamed at each end to create soft, draped sleeves. It features a relaxed, oversized silhouette with an open front and effortless construction. Knit in brushed alpaca held double, the fabric is impossibly light with a signature halo that softens every stitch. A quiet staple for every season, the Halo Shrug is the kind of timeless piece you reach for again and again.
