PATTERN NOTES
The body of this shrug is knit flat starting at the front with the front and back separated at the shoulders to create a neck opening. The sleeves picked up from around the underarms and worked in the round from the top down. Stitches are then picked up at the center back of the neck to create an I-cord neck edging.
