Notes
1. Shrug is worked from the neck down
to the lower edge.
2. The yoke is worked first then the
piece is divided and body and sleeves
are worked separately to end.
3. Circular needle is used to
accommodate large number of
stitches. Work back and forth in rows
on circular needle as if working with
straight needles.
