Notes from the Designer:
Chamfered is a unique shrug in that it is knitted in two colors with each sleeve a different color. The two colors meet in the back of the shrug and form a diagonal. The boundary between the two colors at the back of the shrug creates a 45º angled edge called a chamfer. The hand-crafting or knitting process to create these edges is basically called chamfered. This angled edge is used with various materials and is very common in mirrors. Since one side of this shrug mimics the other, the shrug has a mirrored effect.
With two different sleeve colors, this shrug is fun to wear. When you wear Chamfered, people will have to circle you or have you turn around to figure out why there are two sleeve colors and how the shrug changes in the back. Enjoy the attention Chamfered brings you!
